EIGHTH GRADE FUNDRAISER Our after school sales have not been as successful as we hoped so we are in need of another fundraiser to cover the costs of our students 8th grade dance. We found this coupon book that seems like something we can all use. It contains coupons for lots of local places like Dairy Queen, Wendy’s, Chick-fil-A and much more. It also has four $5 coupons to Winn Dixie that can be redeemed at Publix. These 4 coupons alone pay for the book and everyone has to buy groceries! The PTA will receive $10 for each book sold. We estimate that, if each family buys at least one coupon book we will make more than enough money to give our eighth graders a dance they will remember forever. A win-win situation! . Coupon book is valid until June 2013! Click here to browse the book  Click here to download the order form. Please send forms to school with your student and have them deliver it to the main administration office. You can also pay online by giving us your email and we will send you an invoice.  Click here to send us your email.  Please specify in your email the number of books you would like to buy. There is a $1 fee to cover PayPal charges. Help our eighth graders have the best dance EVER. Thanks for your support!	8TH GRADE DC EXPERIENCE PARENT NIGHT There are still a few spots left for students on this wonderful trip. 6 days/5 Nights Philadelphia, DC and Baltimore.

. PARENT INVOLVEMENT Parents are the biggest influence in their child's life and education. Teachers and your child's classmates/friends are important, but parents are much more important. The difference between a good school and an even better school is the involvement of the parents and school community. Even if a parent doesn't have much time to be involved at the school location, 15 minutes of uninterrupted time spent with your child every day can improve study skills, build self-esteem and go a long way toward a successful school experience.   Research has proven when parents are involved in their child's education, they do better in school.. It's important for us to be involved in education. Every parent can be involved, even if they can't make it to school during the day or to the PTA meeting. How? CLICK HERE to find out!
