Cullins-Lake Pointe Parent Connect
Week of December 10
A Message from the Principal
Dear Cullins Cowboys,
This winter we’re hosting a holiday shop like no other: the Giving Market! The Giving Market is a holiday shop that inspires generosity, provides high-quality gifts, and allows every student to participate. Our Giving Market will be in D115 from 12/10-12/14.
1. EVERYONE IS INCLUDED. Every student receives a Giving Dollar which is redeemable for one real dollar at the Giving Market. We want students to be inspired to live with generosity, so students must spend their Giving Dollar on someone else.
2. HIGH-QUALITY GIFTS. The Giving Market’s hand-picked meaningful gifts are perfect for everyone. With just $20 students can purchase gifts for everyone on their list: mom, dad, grandma, grandpa, brother, sister, cousin, friend, teacher, and pet! All gifts are under $10.
3. FUN HOLIDAY EXPERIENCE. With the Giving Market Challenge of the Day, students will spread holiday cheer through spontaneous singing and random acts of kindness.
This week we sent home the Student Giving Guide, a Giving Envelope, and a free Giving Dollar. Be on the lookout for those items in your student’s backpack.
Together with your child, decide on some amazing items for them to purchase for others. They can write down their “gift list” on the back of their Student Giving Guide. Make sure to send all cash, check, and Giving Dollar back in your student’s Giving Envelope the day their class visits the Giving Market.
Also, make sure to visit GivingMarket.com for an in-depth look at all of the gifts available this year.
