Pennies for Patients
This week is... Pennies for Patients week! Throughout the week, students are encouraged to bring coins or bills to school to support The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. Our goal is beat last year's fundraising total of $6000!
To support this effort, Gayman’s Student Council is supporting a Spirit Week. Please see the chart above for the special dress-up and collection days scheduled.
New this year: Gayman's Student Council will add on "Chuck Your Change Friday." This special event will occur, Friday, January 17th during morning arrival. Student Council members will stand by the car rider line, bus drop off, walker entrance, and the before school doors with collection cans. Everyone is welcome to participate!
Thank your for supporting this important cause. Together we can make a difference!

Kids Care Club & the MLK Committee
The Kids Care Club and the MLK committee are teaming up this January to bring you a special MLK Volunteer event. We will complete 2 projects in honor of this special day. Please follow link for details and signup.
First, we will be making Jared Boxes. A Jared Box is a plastic storage box filled with small gifts used to create a diversion for young patients in the hospital as they receive chemotherapy and other medical treatments. Second, we will be assembling snack bags for the Bucks County Housing Group. The snack bags provide a weeks worth of snacks for kids.
There is a donation bin outside the old main office entrance. For items to fill the Jared Boxes you can look at the suggested toy list at www.thejaredbox.com. To register your child for this special service event, CLICK HERE.
