Many
of you may have heard that we are trying out a new and exciting fundraiser that
not only is fun for the kids, but benefits the POEC fundraising efforts.
On Friday September 9th students may pay $1 in cash or $1 in box tops and
blue jeans instead of their normal uniform pants. Because this is a trial
run to see how the students and react and behave with such an event we are only
allowing jeans and all students must continue to wear their uniform dress
shirt. On Thursday we will have volunteers outside of each school to
allow students and parents to pre-purchase wrist bands for Friday's Dollar Jean
Day. Any student that pre-purchases a wrist band will not need to worry
about getting one on Friday, but they must have the band on their wrist to
qualify on Friday to wear jeans. On Friday we will again have even more
volunteers outside of each school to continue to collect dollars or $1 in box
tops. In order to speed things up outside the school we will be stamping
kids hands to instead of putting on wrist bands. Students can begin to
purchase the bands on Thursday or receive the stamp on Friday starting at 8am
and we will continue to sell until the bell rings and the students are invited
inside. The POEC will be screening the students to make sure they are
wearing the appropriate clothing before they enter the school. We are
hoping that all students understand what the dress code will be and we need
your help to make sure they follow the guidelines. Students that are not
wearing the appropriate jeans or do not have the $1 will be sent to the office
to call home.
Students
are allowed to wear BLUE jeans. Not black, brown, white or any other
color. Blue jeans must NOT be overly baggy, have holes in them or be
considered as "skinny" jeans. If they would prefer not to pay
the dollar then they can wear their normal school uniform. Teachers may
also wear blue jeans by paying the dollar or giving a $1 in box tops.
Thank
you for helping the POEC make this fundraiser be fun and a huge success!
