Fall Carnival
We had our first Fall Carnival Committee Meeting yesterday. If you were not able to join us and would still like to help plan carnival, please contact Jessica Henz, jesshenz@twc.com. There will also be an opportunity to sign up to work the night of Fall Carnival (Friday, October 27th) with the Set up, Food Lines, Running games or inflatables, and Clean up. These will be one hour shifts listed in our Fall Carnival Sign Up Genius. Keep an eye out for the Sign Up Genius later this month!
NEEDED: Volunteers!
We have lots of volunteer opportunities that desperately need volunteers!
Do you have a green thumb or enjoy gardening? Then we need YOU! We are looking for volunteers to help us maintain the science garden. What a great way to plant the seed of gardening love with our students! If you are interested in helping, please, contact Jessica Henz, jesshenz@twc.com We hope to have a "Garden Clean Up Night" soon! More information about that once we secure a date.
Are you handy with a sewing machine? WE NEED YOU! Our Sack Race sacks are ripped! We need a volunteer to sew these. There are around ten and we use them mainly on field day. If you are willing to lend your service to help mend them, please contact Susan.roberts@fayette.kyschools.us

Reading is Fundamental (September 28th)
