Last Day of 1 Quarter
OCTOBER 18 & 21 IS FALL BREAK, AND SCHOOL WILL BE CLOSED FRIDAY AND MONDAY; daycare will be open for those who signed up. If you need care and didn’t sign up yet, please check with Ms. Heidi ASAP! October 25 we have a half-day of school, but daycare will be open. PLEASE let daycare or the office know if your student will be going to daycare that afternoon, so that we will have enough lunches for everyone!
Fall Festival/TRUNK OR TREAT: Saturday, October 26th First Lutheran Church & School will host our Trunk or Treat Festival from 5:00 – 7:00 p.m. Pizza will be sold by the slice for $2.00 each slice in advance, or $3/slice at the event (tea/lemonade included). Stop by the office or return the attached order form with payment to your homeroom teacher by October 22 to purchase your pizza at “advance” prices. Chips with cheese and walking taco’s will also be for sale at the event. We need people to host a trunk, run games, and give out candy. Contact Jennifer Heitman for more information at jenniferheitman@cox.net. CHEER COMPETITION THIS WEEKEND: Your FLS cheerleaders will be competing at the MCDA cheer and dance competition at Frontier City THIS Saturday, October 19th! Come out and show them your support, and then go have fun on some roller coasters! Spectator tickets (which include park entry) can be purchased for $23 + tax at frontiercity.com using promo code CHEER. CARDINALS GIVE BACK: Jiffy Trip is partnering with First Lutheran to collect change for the Children’s Hospital Foundation/Children’s Miracle Network Hospitals for one week; October 16th – October 23rd. They are asking First Lutheran students to donate change (or bills if you prefer), and all proceeds will benefit the Children’s Hospital Foundation. The winning class will be the class in each building who donates the most (on average) per student, and that class will win a pizza party, courtesy of Jiffy Trip! WE NEED YOUR USED INK/TONER CARTRIDGES: We collect and recycle ink & toner cartridges for credit on our Staples bill! Please donate your ink/toner cartridges by bringing them to the office, leaving them with your teachers to send to the office, or leave them in the black mailbox between the office and the parking lot. We also collect and recycle (broken or working) cell phones, other small electronic devices like iPods and Kindles (sorry--no desktops), laptops, and charging cords. Using these credits on our ink purchases each month helps us to keep our costs down, which helps you (the people whose tuition pays our bills)! Thank you! -1-
