You're Invited to the SLPA Open Meeting
Kindergarten Trick-or-Treat Service Project
Please give your child coins on Friday, October 18, and Friday, October 25, so they can give them to our kindergarten students as they trick-or-treat around the school starting at 8:15 a.m. on the above dates. Coins are being collected for St. Martha's Catholic School in Kingwood that was flooded by Hurricane Harvey in 2017. The school had just finished renovations, when tropical storm Imelda hit in September and flooded their school once more.
GENCO We've Got Spirit How About You Competition
Earn Cash for Our School
- Buy Box Tops products - Look for the logo
- Open the app
- Tap the scan button and snap a photo of your purchase.
During the transition, you can still clip the Box Tops and drop them off in the Box Tops mailbox at the school.
St. Louis Penny Wars
Pennies are "positive." Here is how it works:
- Containers are located in each classroom
- Each penny counts as a positive point for your child's classroom
- Each silver coin counts as negative points for OTHER classrooms. In other words, dropping a quarter in another classroom's bucket takes 25 points from their total
- At the end of the day on October 29, all change/points will be tallied and the classroom with the most points will win a pizza party for October 31.
Continue to have your child save change--it can make a big difference.

Items Needed for Service Project
The Reicher National Honor Society and Spanish Honor Society will partner with The Blue Star Mothers in an effort to send Christmas Cards and needed supplies to our US troops that have been deployed overseas away from their families during Christmas.
We are currently in need of blank Christmas cards, Christmas stationary, Christmas stickers, and green and red construction paper. We are asking for any donations that you may have sitting around your house toward this effort over the next two weeks. Please feel free to send your donations in to Mrs. Kelly. We plan to write our letters as a school by October 25. If you have any questions, please email kkelly@reicher.org. Many thanks and Muchas Gracias from NHS and SHH!
PS. More information to come on needed toiletry items next week!
