Box Tops For Education and Campbell Soup Labels
Thank you for submitting your Box tops and Soup Labels, we really appreciate it. Here are a few things to keep in mind when sending them in:
1. Check for expired box tops, we cannot submit them.
2. Please trim them if possible — it helps our Volunteers and saves them time when processing our box tops and soup labels.
3. Please have your Student bring them to School in a Ziploc bag and turn them in to their Teacher.
Box Tops questions can be directed to Jessica Hegarty at jesshegs@gmail.com.
Campbell Soup Label questions can be directed to Tanya DeSchmidt at deschmidtfamily4@yahoo.com.

Popcorn Thursday Volunteers Needed!!
Each Thursday the Students are able to enjoy pop-corn at their lunch recess. However, we have a shortage of Volunteers that has forced us to cancel popcorn on various days. Each Thursday requires 2 Volunteers from approximately 10:15 am—1:30pm to prepare and sell the popcorn. This is fun and easy and a great way to see your child at recess!
Please email jenniferrasar@yahoo.com if you are interested in more information or would like to Vol-unteer! Sorry no little ones allowed.

Auction Procurement
Page 4
It’s not too early to start thinking about our auction that will be on April 10th at Lord Hill Farms! We are looking for people to help procure items and the procurement forms are ready to be put to use. Please contact Krissy Clark at duckcougar@verizon.net or (425) 357-9303 if you are interested in helping procure items.
We will be trying to keep it simple and efficient as we strategically tackle local areas so we don’t all hit the same areas at once. In order to procure an item a form must be used. Each class will also have an auction class parent who will be in charge of the class basket and project and if you haven’t already heard from that parent you will be soon!
Please use your personal contacts from businesses to start gathering fun and exciting items and we can place the items in the appropriate spot. The earlier we can ask busi-nesses to donate the better so when you are out doing your holiday shopping (or re-turning) please ask for donations. I keep the procurement forms in my car so I always have them with me. There are forms available in the office or I can get them to you if you need them.
Also, if you have any suggestions as far as what type of items you would like to see at the auction please let me know. We are open to ideas and are always looking for ways to make the auction even better than the year prior.
If you have any questions please don’t hesitate to contact me. Thanks and happy pro-curing!
