Seventh Grade Shout Outs To.....
- Jennifer Thompson, our 7th Grade Adopt-A-Family Coordinator. Many thanks to Jennifer for organizing this effort to help the families served by our Giving Bank.
Adopt A Family
In preparing for Christmas, our class has been selected to Adopt A Family, and I hope you can help make these wishes come true. Our selected family is a single mother, Cynthia, who is caring for her 4 Children, Jaime (Age 9), Vanity (Age 7), Matthew (Age 6) and Damian (Age 3). Cynthia asked for simple things for her children, clothes, shoes, underwear and socks. And some necessities for their home.
If you are able to participate, I will bring a collection box into the 7th grade classroom later this week. Gifts should be wrapped and labeled (each request has how to label the package). Feel free to sign with your family name or From Santa. We need to deliver to the Giving Bank by 12/13.

Christmas Gifts for Teachers
The Christmas Holiday is quickly approaching and I am coordinating the teacher and staff gifts for our class. We can show our appreciation by combining our efforts to allow our dollars to go further. Participation is voluntary and any amount is appreciated.
As in years past, the majority of the money will go to the teacher. The remainder will be combined with the other grades for the ancillary teachers, aides and staff. If you wish to participate, please send me a check or cash, no later than
Monday, December 12th.
All gifts will be given out at the faculty/staff Christmas luncheon on the last day of school before Christmas break begins.
Any donations can be sent to school in care of Jack, directly to the school office with my name on the envelope, or mailed directly to my home (2311 E. Dudley Street Pasadena, CA 91104). I will send you an email confirming any contribution received.
