5th grade Adopt-A-Family Activity

If you've haven't had time this busy holiday season to contribute, you still have an opportunity tomorrow.  If you can bring a gift tomorrow either during the day or at the activity (5:30 to 7pm in the cafeteria) that would be fantastic.  If you can't - bring yourself and donate your time.  This is a great way to teach our youth to be socially responsible and give back to the community.  This is a totally free event and is a great way to celebrate the true meaning of the holidays.

5th grade Adopt A Family activity

I am SO excited about this 5th grade activity.  Here's the info...

Dear Families,

For December, the 5th Grade has "adopted" a family.

Our Adopted Family consists of a Grandmother raising her three 5 year old grand-daughters (triplets!), age 5 (both parents are deceased). These children have never had an actual Christmas. Please sign up for one or more items on the sign up sheet (under Volunteers tab) to help this family have an amazing Christmas. 

We will have a Wrap Party on December 20 from 5:30pm - 7pm in the Keppel Cafeteria. PLEASE bring the gift you have signed up for and your 5th grader to help wrap the gifts and participate in the wonderful feeling of helping others. If you cannot attend the party, please have your child bring their gift to their classroom onMonday, Dec. 19.

If we fill up all the spaces on the list, I will add more items!

PLEASE INCLUDE GIFT RECEIPTS WITH ALL OF YOUR GIFTS.

Questions? Contact Dena Cavazos (818) 720-3399  denacuccia@yahoo.com
