PTA Cookie Dough Fundraiser
Last week we kicked off our annual Cookie Dough Fundraiser sponsored by our hardworking PTA. Students have the opportunity to win lots of fun prizes if they meet sales goals. Don't forget- orders must be turned in by September 10th!
Mr. White, the Cookie Monster
Teachers got students excited about cookie dough in a cookie-eating contest. Mr. White was the proud winner!
Moo-tivating Students to Raise Funds
Who is this PTA mom? She's got the moooo-ves!
Cash Grab!
Coach Anderson demonstrated what students will get to do if they sell lots of cookie dough. He grabbed over $30 in cash!
Grandparents Day Breakfast
The breakfast for Grandparents Day will be Friday, September 7th. Reservations are now closed. IMPORTANT: Grandparents who attend MUST be on the child's contact list in INOW.
September is Attendance Awareness Month
Mt. Carmel students got to help our school district make a video to promote Attendance Awareness! (See picture below.) Being at school every day has a significant effect on students' academic performance. Students are missing out when they're not in class...plus we miss them! Please make every effort to get your children to school if they are not sick. Madison County Schools' calendar allows generous amounts of time for family travel, so please schedule trips around your child's school schedule. Thank you for supporting us in our effort to improve our school's attendance rate.

Help Us Speed Up Afternoon Car-Rider Line
Many parents use a pants hanger to display their child's car-rider sign. It makes the sign more visible from a distance and helps speed up the process. We have a few available in the office.
