Read-a-ThonJanuary 30, 2015
It is time to get ready
for the …Roosevelt
READ-A-THON!
The Read-A-Thon is our only school
sponsored fundraiser for the year! All
money raised will be used for purchasing items for students such as technology,
curriculum, playground equipment, etc.
We are asking for any donations that can be
used for the student prize drawing! We
will take any NEW items that you feel a first grade child would like. Some ideas are toys, footballs, soccer balls,
books, coloring books with crayons, etc. They even love gift certificates to ice cream
or fast food restaurants around town. No
item is too small as we have grouped things together in the past to make a nice
prize!
We will take anything you would
like to donate and will accept them beginning now and up to the day of the
Read-A-Thon, January 30th. We look forward to this
event and will keep you informed as we move closer to the big day.J
Character Trait of the Month: Fairness
I am happy to report we have been
seeing students displaying good character at Roosevelt! As you know, we have been honoring their
efforts as students have been receiving “Caught with Character” tickets and
have been entered in weekly drawings!
Once a name is drawn, the students are able to come to the office and
select a special prize from the parent club sponsored treasure box! I must say, it is such a joy to see the
excitement in our students as they proudly share the Character trait they
displayed in order to receive a ticketJ
Way to go Students!!
Parent ClubSee’s Candy Fundraiser Results!
On
behalf of the students and staff of Roosevelt, I would like to thank our
families for their efforts in selling See’s Candy and raising funds that will
be used for all of our students! As a
school we challenged ourselves to raise $3,000.
We managed to bring in $4,950!!! Way
to go Roughriders! J
