Treasure Jars!!
A NES Spring Fling Tradition!
Treasure Jars are a NES favorite at Spring Fling each year--all players of the Treasure Jar game walk away with a prize! Right now, we need your help making the jars! (Don't forget: the class that collects the most treasure jars wins a prize!)
Collection period: NOW through May 17.
Reminders: For the safety of our students, please pay special attention to these guidelines. Absolutely no food, candy or containers containing NUTS/TREENUTS. No recycled medicine containers and no breakable glass jars. All items in the jars should be clean, new, unused and again, peanut-free!
Where do I send the jars? Send jars into school with your child. They will be collected from each classroom. You may send in multiple jars – there is no limit! The classroom that collects the most treasure jars for the Spring Fling event will earn an extra recess.
WE NEED YOUR BAGS!
Girl Scout 5th grade Junior troop #2555 will continue with their bag collection until May 31, 2018!
