Cheer Fair
This year we are teaming up with the boys and girls basketball coaches to help support Coaches against Cancer. A portion of the proceeds from the sale of the shirts will go to help fight cancer! Girls in grades K–8 are invited to join high school cheerleaders to perform at half-time of the Varsity Girls Game, Friday, December 21st. The game starts at 6:00pm. Girls are encouraged to sit in the bleachers behind the Cheerleaders until they take the floor at half-time. All participants are free to leave at the conclusion of the performance.
A practice will be held on Thursday, December 20th, from 3:00–4:30 pm in the Elementary Gym. Please fill out the form below and return it to the Elementary, Middle School or High School office. Please be sure to mark “Cheer Fair - Attn: Coach Lackman” on the outside of the envelope. Please fill out a separate form for each participant. All forms may be placed in the same envelope with one total payment.
If you have any questions you may contact Lisa Lackman, Blair Oaks Cheer Coach, at llackman@blairoaks.org or 573-338-2703.
Form & payment of $15 per participating student are enclosed. Additional shirts may be ordered for $10 each. Payment must be received by Wednesday, December 12th. Any orders received after this date will not be guaranteed a t-shirt.
Order forms were sent home yesterday. An electronic copy is provided below.
Fighting Cancer with Free Throws
Join the Falcon & Lady Falcon basketball teams in fighting cancer with free throws. Between December 14th & December 20th, students can participate in a free throw-a-thon to raise money for the American Cancer Society. Between December 14th and December 20th, students will find sponsors to pledge money or a flat donation for each made free throw (see back side). Students will then shoot 100 free throws at home or in the high school gym on December 16th from 3:00 - 5:00pm and keep track of how many shots they make. Pledge sheets and donations should be turned in to the high school office by Thursday, December 20th. The presentation of the check to the American Cancer Society will be between the varsity boys and girls games against the Fatima Comets on December 21st.

Coca-Cola Give Program
We’re excited to share that our school is part of the Coca-Cola Give program. This opens up the Blair Oaks libraries to new funding opportunities to help improve learning environments for students. The best part? Donations don’t come out of your own pocket. When you make Coca-Cola purchases, you simply enter the product codes here: https://us.coca-cola.com/give/schools/ and the school libraries receives a donation. Just be sure to select "Blair Oaks Elementary" when you scan.
Even simpler than that, you can collect Coke caps and codes from the boxes and send them to school. We will enter them for you.
Your help with this is easy and greatly appreciated.
Home & School
Thank you to everyone who donated items to the teachers' work room!
Next meeting is scheduled for Tuesday, December 11 at 5:30 at Blair Oaks Elementary.
