Each year the Red & White Club (PTO) coordinates “teacher appreciation” breakfast/snacks for the staff on or around the first Monday of each month (September 8).  Instead of asking all parents each month to consider contributing, we ask one team’s parents each month.  For this month, we are asking the 8th Grade’s Red Team parents. Please consider donating to this committee.   Here is the link to this month’s schedule for September 8..   Link:  https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0F4AA5AF2DAAFBC43-58400174-first#/   Thank you, Chris Carter Principal
