Bulldog Bark Family Edition
January 2020
The Gift of Giving
Thank you for sharing your children with us! We strive to work together to find success for each of our students, and appreciate your willingness to support that journey! Please take time over break to notice and appreciate the little things in our lives, and know that it truly is the shared embrace and time spent together that are most often remembered by our children. We look forward to continuing our Bulldog Journey in 2020! Have a very Merry Christmas and most excellent New Year!
From the Office:
- Thank you to our supporters at Bonnema Runke Stern, Inc, who generously donated $750 for our PAES Media Center! Your kindness is appreciated!
- To ease congestion our Fishbowl, allow our preschool and PAWS students easy access to the cafeteria and their classrooms and to allow better office access each morning, please walk with your son or daughter to the playground if not eating breakfast. Your thoughtfulness to this matter is much appreciated! Thank you!
- Please see the link below to register for our PawPacks Program, designed to provide quick, easy, nutritious meals intended to help students who could use additional food, or who may not have an adult at home to help prepare food over the weekend. Packs are sent home with students at the end of each week in a confidential manner. There is NO cost and there are NO income qualifications to participate. Paper copies are available in the office.
- If your son/daughter is absent for any reason, please call the office before 9:00 AM the morning of the absence.
- Free and Reduced Lunch applications are available year round. Please call the office with questions or concerns.

Catholic Charities' Foster Grandparent Program
Paynesville Area Elementary School graciously welcomes Foster Grandparents! The Foster Grandparent Program offers seniors, 55+, the opportunity to work with students in local schools, or other non-profit agencies with children who need extra assistance. Typically school “Grandma’s” and “Grandpa’s” work one-on-one with kids who need some extra support both academically and emotionally.Foster Grandparents have the ability to use their time, skills and experience to help children learn. Volunteers put in a minimum of 260 hours a year and receive a tax free stipend, mileage reimbursement, and educational opportunities.
This is a great opportunity if you have time to spare, love to be with children, and could use some extra non-taxable income. For more information, please contact Sara at 320-229-4589 or www.ccstcloud.org
