Project Graduation

 

The Project Graduation Fundraising Committee will once again be offering a chance to order wrapping paper.  The brochures will be sent home at the end of August and will need to be returned by Friday October 1st.  There will be a collection box in the office for students to drop off their envelopes or you may bring them to Open House.  (Please stop by our table that night!!) The success of Project Graduation every year is dependant upon this fundraiser and we are grateful for the support of the community. 

 

 

We will continue with the recycling fundraiser so please look for the green bins in all of RSD 17 schools and consider donating used cell phones, ink jet cartridges, digital cameras, laptops, etc.

 

  If you an questions, feel free to contact Kathy Strom, 860-345-3398 or KSSTROM@aol.com.   Updates will be added to the Project Graduation link on the district website. 

 

 

We have a great group of volunteers and welcome many more but need two more very important people ASAP! Chairpersons for the Decorations and Invitations Committees are essential and we need these positions filled!  No experience necessary!!! 

 

Please contact Kaycee Blancaflor for more information 860-345-7419.  Thank you.

 

The Project Graduation meetings are the 2nd Tuesday of each month at 7pm in the lower media center. The first meeting is September 14. Watch for the monthly meeting schedule for the year towards the end of September.
