A Reminder About Invitations at School
This is a reminder about our policy regarding party invitations being passed out at school.
Party Invitations: We ask that party invitations not be given out at school. To avoid classroom disruption and exclusion please find other means of distribution (VCS Handbook).
Thank you!
Appreciations
Thank you to everyone who worked to raise funds for our Creak Clean Up. We did not reach our $20,000 goal, but I appreciate that we gave it our best shot. $7,000-plus is pretty impressive!
And to all our sponsors and businesses that donated food for our lunch—we appreciate your support!
THANK YOU to the Middle School students (and Emma for your super restaurant management skills) for the wonderful lunch you provided on Wednesday. It was a fun and much needed school community event.
