Pasta for Pennies - Reminder

Please remember to check your mailboxes today for Pasta for Pennies materials for your classroom and students!  Here are some important things to remember for our November service project:
  • Each child should have a letter and a small box to take home in their Tuesday Packets today.
  • You should have a collection box for your classroom, a donation tracking poster to post in your room, and an envelope that will carry donations to the office.
  • Rather than a monetary goal, our school goal is to have 100% participation!  Every penny counts!
  • If students don't have change to spare, they can donate a cog they've earned instead -- 1 Cog = 5 cents from Mr. Faullin!
  • Bridget or I will come to your room each morning around 9:00-9:15 to collect your envelopes.  We will have your envelopes returned to your mailboxes by the end of each day.
  • Once Stacy returns, we will make sure to find out where she posted the link to the informative video of Jenny Wayne's (of Leukemia & Lymphoma Society) presentation so that you can share it with your class.
We want all students to experience the rewarding feeling of being generous, kind, and compassionate, and to know that they have made a positive difference in the world around them.  Thank you for your work towards incorporating this meaningful service project into your classroom routines and lessons!

If you have any questions about Pasta for Pennies, email Jenny or Bridget :)  Happy Tuesday!
