Saturday – Lindbergh Boutique!

RAFFLE TICKETS ARE DUE TOMORROW!  PLEASE TURN IN ALL SOLD/UNSOLD TICKETS TO YOUR TEACHER!!! If you decide that selling isn’t for you, a donation can be made as well to help our school and students reach their fundraising goal.  This fundraiser allows us to only have one fundraiser a year for all of our amazing events that our PTA is able to provide, as well as extras such as our GAGA ball pit, soon to be new water fountains/bottle fill stations, reading kits and so much more.

Our Lindbergh Holiday Boutique is a community tradition that is enjoyed by so many.  It is not possible without all of our amazing volunteers.  Please check the signup genius and get your shift before someone else does.  We need lots of help decorating the school tomorrow afternoon as well, we would love to see your smiling faces.

Our Holiday Boutique is quickly approaching and every year each classroom creates a basket for the raffle.  All proceeds for the basket raffle go back to the teachers to use for items in the classroom.

We are planning to make a “dollar cake.”  We are asking everyone to donate $10 to make this work!  The supplies are $25 for the “cake” and $25 for the ribbons, flowers and the cake bottom.  We hope to be able to use $250 worth of dollar bills.  A note will be coming home today with a picture of what the cake will look like.

Send donations in to Mrs. Bush in an envelope addressed to HR Mom by November 1st.

Please let us know if you have any questions!  Thank you in advance!
