Urgent Request: Egg Donations Needed TOMORROW!

The 7th grade will be holding an Egg Drop Contest tomorrow (Wednesday Nov. 25) and they need eggs!  If you can, please consider sending in a dozen to make this activity fun.  They also need construction materials, if you have anything that might be useful -- styrofoam, cardboard, other padding, etc.

Donate Your Old CD Players to the 7th Grade!

The 7th grade language arts classes are in need of CD players and headphones.  Since you've certainly moved all of your music to digital formats, perhaps you can spare a CD player or headset.  They could also use a couple of headphone splitters.  Thank you so much for your donations.  Remember that all donations to the school or PTO are tax-deductible.

Lake Compounce Field Trip Will Be Late!
