Explorer's Faire- October 18, 2016 at Butte College
On October 18, 2016 from 5:00-7:30pm, Butte College will host the first annual Explorer’s Faire for kindergarten through 8th grade students and their families. The event aims to increase children’s awareness and interest in STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art and Math) careers by showcasing business, industry and education in the North Valley.
Interactive exhibits and free raffles will be on-going at the Butte College Arts Building on the main campus, and food trucks will be available for low-cost dining options. Free $5.00 food vouchers will be given away to the first 200 attendees.
The Explorer’s Faire is sponsored by Butte College in collaboration with Butte County Office of Education, Glenn County Office of Education and Butte-Glenn Career Pathways Consortium.
Paradise Unified School District is offering to drive 11 people from Ponderosa to the Explorer's Faire on the 18th. Minors must be accompanied by an adult. Each school is allotted 11 spots. We will have a sign up in the office.
The bus will pick families up at 4:10 from Ponderosa. The bus will be at Butte College by 5:00pm and leave at 7:30pm.
Ponderosa Winter Coat Drive
It’s that time of year again. Time for cold weather to set in. Time to help a fellow student stay warm this winter. We are looking for new or gently used warm coats. We are also looking for socks, hats, gloves and backpacks. We are in need of boy and girl coats sizes 4-20. Please bring in your donations to the front office. There is a large box in the office to collect all donations. Coat drive will end Oct. 31st.
