OUR GIVING PROJECT The students have chosen several projects through ADRA: Water purification for a family $15; Treatment for a Starving Child $15; A Goat for a family in the Philippines $70; a hygiene kit for disaster survivors $25, and (if we get enough support) a Bee Hive for a Tunisian family $100. Please help your child find ways to earn/collect money for these efforts. Thank you. NO LATE PAPERS Mrs. Houghton needs to institute a policy like Mrs. McKeone's - late papers lose 25% and papers may be re-done only by permission. We hope this will stem the number of routinely late papers and help encourage better habits. GIFT EXCHANGE Those students who wish to participate will be having a gift exchange. Boys will buy for boys, and girls for girls. Fifth will buy for fifth and sixth for sixth. The price range is set at $5 to $7.50.
