We raised $250 for the school during our September fundraiser with Bailey’s Local! Thank you to everyone that came out to support our local bar/restaurant and help raise money for the piece of playground equipment that we have our eye on. It will be accessible to all students. Our October fundraiser is set for Monday night, October 24th. See you there!
The Eagle Elementary PTE would like to invite the community to purchase Commemorative Bricks to be placed in a path to and around the flag pole. Funds raised by the sale of the bricks will be managed by the PTE to help provide for the schools future needs.
We really need volunteers to help with the Market to Market relay on October 8th. This is a fun and easy way to earn $550 for the school. If we don’t get volunteers this week then we may have to forfeit this event and lose out on the opportunity for this fundraiser every year. Please sign up for any shift that you are available to assist with. CLICK HERE to sign up to help.
Please join us for the first school skate fundraiser of the year. Skate Zone is closing its doors in 2017 so make sure you come out for the school skate while you can.
We have decided to collect our Box Tops and Labels for Education differently this year in hopes that we can alleviate some issues in collecting box tops for our school.
We have set a goal of collecting 9,000 Box Tops throughout the year. We know we can achieve this goal because we have surpassed it repeatedly in the past years.
In our collecting of Box Tops in years past, we have pitted the classrooms against each other in hopes they win something for the work. To avoid this and other issues pertaining to parents splitting up their collection and specific classrooms repeatedly winning, we have decided that all classrooms benefit from the collection when we achieve this goal. The children at Eagle Elementary will have a chance to vote on their option of a prize. Those prizes are currently in discussion with the Principal, Dottie Heusman and we will release them in due time.
As for the Labels for Education, they have a specific list of items we get in return for collecting these items. We can use the list to order things for the school, such as extra school supplies for those classrooms who need them, Sports
That being said, we have had our first collection of Box Tops in the fall, and other times of collection will be in January and again in April. Keep collecting Box Tops and Labels for Education!
