STUDENT COUNCIL DEPARTMENT
As members of the Student Council, we are increasing school spirit by hosting a No Tardy Party with a carnival theme for all students. We have many great ideas to make this occasion very exciting for the students but we are working with a limited budget. We would love to acknowledge those individuals of our school that exceed the expectation of Dutch Fork Middle School. We understand you are a crucial benefit to our community and we are hopeful, you would so graciously sponsor us in this idea. The result of this project is very important to us and we are hoping students will enjoy it, so we will greatly appreciate any amount or donation. We are currently accepting monetary gifts and donations like carnival snack items, water, popcorn, and ice pops. If you are available to donate your time, we would appreciate that as well. The No Tardy Party is scheduled for Friday, April 12 from 11:00 -1:30. Please make all donations payable to Dutch Fork Middle and submit them by April 5, 2019. Any questions please contact Sharisse Lee 803-476-4897
Thank you in advance for reading our request.
Sincerely,
Lilly Margaret O’Leary Student Council President on behalf of the Dutch Fork Middle Student Council Members
