Dear Families,
One week from today we will be stuffing ourselves with yummy food and enjoying time with family and friends. It is so hard to believe that we are already entering the holiday season. We had a wonderful turnout for the Pancakes and Pictures with Santa event last Sunday. We raised $740.00 for the Mason Mustang Scholarship fund. Thanks to all that support this fundraiser!
We are still collecting coins or bills for the fundraiser to support the victims of the devastating hurricanes this fall. Please send in any donation by November 25th.
The School Club is working hard at getting everything ready for the Holiday Shopping Fair that will be held on Thursday, December 12th. Each class will have time to visit the fair and buy gifts for their families and friends. Don’t forget to send money and a shopping list in with your child on Thursday so that they can shop with their classmates. If you need any financial assistance please let me know.
The School Board has begun budget talks for the 25-26 school year. The next School Board meeting is on December 16th where we will continue those talks. The good news is the budget will be going down this year! If you are interested in learning more about the budget we encourage you to attend a School Board meeting. We will also have 2 school board positions open in March. If you are interested in becoming a school board member please reach out and we can talk about the next steps in the process.
We will be having spirit week the week before Christmas break. Please see the schedule for the week.
