7th grade parents

We are looking for chair and co-chair to lead the 8th grade fundraising activities. Please notify Mrs. Parsons before Wednesday if you are interested.

This person(s) will coordinate 8th grade activities.  They will organize meetings and make sure all committees have chair and co-chairs.  They are not responsible for leading each activity.

We would like to have a meeting for all parents and students to kick off the responsibilities of this fundraising goal for DC and 8th grade activities.

We know this is short notice, however, we need to meet this week to kick off flower sale and fish fry.  Please join us for a meeting on Wednesday, January 18th at 6:30 pm in the Cafe`.  Each student and one parent need to be present at this meeting.

May God Bless,

Rita
