selling alternative healthy snacks including satsumas, fruit leather, fruit

KEYS FOUND: Includes car keys. If you think they're yours, please see Katherine
in the main office to claim.
COLLECTING "HOUSE ON MANGO STREET": Melanie's team is collecting copies of Sandra Cisneros' novel House on Mango Street to read in January. We need about 40 more. New copies are expensive so we're trying to find used ones. If you have an old copy at home or sometimes shop at used bookstores, we'd appreciate it if you'd pick one up and pass it on to Melanie, Anne, Victoria or Lisa. Thanks!
IMPORTANT LUNCH INFORMATION: Families that use the "lunch credit system" (meaning that you buy credit for more lunches by sending in a check) need to know that meals may no longer be charged to your account if your credit runs out, Currently all balances due need to be paid in full. Please make every effort to carefully calculate when you must send in more money for your child's lunch. Our Cafeteria Manager, Beauty, reminds students when their accounts are low, but it seems unrealistic for them to always remember to get that message to their parent/guardian. Thank you for your help in keeping the lunchroom accounts up to date. Priscilla Jourden

ATTENTION ALL MIDDLE SCHOOLERS: Starting last
Wednesday, Melanie’s homeroom has once again begun Operation Chicken! Because
of new restriction due to chronic allergies, we will not be serving some of
last year’s favorites; such as bubble gum, tootsie pops, and other snacks that
exceed the sugar and fat limits. However we will be selling alternative healthy
snacks including satsumas, fruit leather, fruit gushers, and possibly licorice.
More might be added as additional donations and ideas come to us.
All of the profits made will contribute
to both the Operation Chicken projects. Both of these projects will serve to
help less-fortunate families in third
world countries. Our goal for this year in profits for Operation Chicken is
$400+ (or 20 flocks of chickens). Any additional money will go toward other
larger livestock. If you wish to make a donation either in food or cash, you
may bring it to Melanie’s homeroom--room 317.
We hope you
will all contribute!

ALL SCHOOL BOOK FAIR –
Thanks!
Last week’s book fair was the most successful yet! Although
the official tally is not in yet, the preliminary count looks great. Stay tuned
for the final results as they come in. Thanks to all the many, many people who
supported the book fair by purchasing books, both for themselves and as gifts
to teachers and the library. A very special thanks to the more than 45
volunteers, who staffed, set up, organized, and packed up the book fair. What
an amazing group of people! Be sure and ask our librarians, Ginny and Linda,
about the many new books that they are now able to get for the library thanks
to your generosity. See you all again for the spring all school book fair.
