Santa Shop
New this Year!
8th Grade Class Gift Fundraiser- The 8th grade will be available to wrap all the gifts that our students purchase. All of the money the 8th grade raises will go directly to their legacy gift to the school. The 8th grade will charge a flat fee of $5.00 to wrap all the gifts your child purchases.
Activity Center- Our 8th Graders will be having an activity table for students who may finish shopping early before the rest of their class.
Dress Down Days- Both days of Secret Santa Shop will be free Dress Down Days for all of the students and faculty.
- Monday - Ugly Sweater Dress Down Day- Everyone can wear their UGLIEST Christmas Sweater to celebrate the first day of shopping. Prizes will be given out for the Ugliest Sweaters in each grade!
- Tuesday- Christmas Overload Dress Down Day- This is a day to wear Red, Green, and so much more! Christmas socks, hats, shoes, shirts, and holiday accessories will make this day extra special. There will be special prizes for students in each grade who have true Christmas Overload!
We hope everyone had a wonderful and blessed Thanksgiving, and enjoyed the much needed time off with your family and loved ones.
