Music Class
The OPES music department is excited to announce the return of the Soarin’ Sounds and Eagle Beats music clubs!
The Soarin’ Sounds music club will meet on Wednesday mornings before school from 7:15 – 7:40 starting on Wednesday, September 19th. The Eagle Beat music club is a collage-style ensemble, which means the students will have opportunities to sing and play various instruments, such as xylophones and hand-held percussion. This group is only for 5th graders and will meet on Tuesday mornings from 7:15 - 7:40 beginning on Tuesday, September 18th.
Students will have a chance to pick up an application during their upcoming music classes if they have not already had the opportunity to do so. Applications are due by next Friday (September 14th). If you would like more information about these clubs, please contact Ms. Cutler at cutlerk@fortmillschools.org.

Box Tops for Education
It is time to start clipping! We are about to begin our Fall Box Top Contest!
Clipping Box Tops is an easy way to help earn cash for our school. Each one is worth 10¢ for our school! Just look for the pink Box Tops on hundreds of products. All you have to do is clip them and send them to school.
Our contest will run until the end of the month. The Homeroom class with the highest amount of Box Tops by September 28th will win a special prize! Collection sheets will be sent home soon, but are not required. Just be sure to label with Teacher's name/ Grade and start sending them in today!
