Tech Trek Success!
TECH TREK WAS A MAJOR SUCCESS THANKS TO YOU!!
We had such a fun on Friday celebrating our big win for Tech Trek! Thanks to all of our sponsors, parents, students, teachers and staff for helping us meet and exceed our goal for the event. We raised $55,756!! The furniture and additions to our Makerspace program are already on order and should be here soon! Penny Wars was all out war as the grades competed head to head for the big win! It was kindergarten who ended up on top but it was a tight race!! The money that came in Friday was what pushed us over the top! Thanks to everyone who brought in the bank!! Friday's Big Top Circus Race proved to be quite entertaining!! SO. MUCH. FUN!

Box Tops & More
BOX TOPS AND MORE!!
Last week’s box top winner was Brady Jayms from Ms Caverly's 3rd grade class. Keep those Box Tops coming!! There is a $5 drawing every Monday from the Box Tops drop box located in the front lobby! And, did you know you we can earn DOUBLE BOX TOPS points with the Box Tops APP?
Box Top App
From the app store, you can download the Box Top app (for free), then after shopping, you can upload your receipt to the app and earn bonus Box Tops for the school. You can still clip the Box Tops on the product and turn it into school and JAE will earn double the points!! It’s super EASY!!
Now Collecting: Tyson Labels
In addition to BOX TOPS, we are also now collecting Tyson labels. The labels never expire are worth 24 cents each. They are not as prevalent as Box Tops as they are only on a few Tyson products. Check out the participating products at this link: http://projectaplus.tyson.com/products.aspx
Now Collecting: Community Coffee Labels
Community Coffee puts the labels on all their coffee - store bought, bulk, and company deliveries. So if the company where you work uses Community Coffee JAE could get even bigger rewards. These labels also do not have an expiration date. ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS: SAVE Proofs of Purchase from all Community® and Private Reserve® products available at the locations listed below: Grocery Stores, Supermarkets & Other Participating Retail Outlets • All coffee products, tea products, creamer, sugar and coffee filters contain eligible Proofs of Purchase. Restaurants, Hotels, Offices & Businesses • Boxes of coffee and coffee related products delivered to restaurants, hotels and other businesses contain high value Proofs of Purchase.
ALL LABELS CAN BE TURNED IN AT THE BOX TOP DROP BOX IN THE SCHOOL LOBBY AND WILL BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE WEEKLY DRAWINGS!
Veterans Day
Who do you know who has served in our country’s military? Invite them to join us on November 10th for JAE’s Veterans Day Celebration. The Flag Raising Ceremony will begin at 8am in front of the school, immediately followed by a hot breakfast in the cafeteria for Veterans and their families. An assembly will take place from 9-9:30am in the gymnasium. Veterans are then invited to join the students in their classrooms for a brief meet and greet. Please let us know you will be attending by sending an email to jaeptoveteransday@gmail.com. We look forward to seeing you!
