Help send the 8th graders to Washington D.C. and get a night out! 

When: Saturday December 10th, 2011

The 8th graders are happy to provide Carden families with a babysitting service for the night in order to raise money for their trip to D.C.

Just a heads up, the eighth graders’ games are due next Wednesday the 30th! Besides that, please do not forget to join us for the sixth graders awesome Plays tomorrow at 11:00 outside on the main stage! Otherwise, your students should have NO home work over vacation (except for the eighth graders).

Give thanks, always! -Mrs. Livingood
