Remember we are back to ½ day Fridays, starting September 26th
Declaration of Household Income: The office needs to have a copy of this form filled out for every student at SHCS (one per family won’t work). We are funded based on the percentage of families who return the forms, not just on those who qualify. Forms are also available at the school office. Please contact Debbie or Danica with any questions.
Green Ribbon Week/Safety & Health Week: Sept 29 – Oct 3. Lots of fun activities will be going on this week, including a bike rodeo on October 3rd.
Emergency Kits: We would like an emergency kit for each child to be brought in by Oct 3. Please put the following items in a bag, with your child’s name on it: change of clothes, snacks, medicine your child needs on a daily basis, & a note/picture from home for reassurance. The PTO is providing water, food and emergency blankets for every child. Mrs. Drake has stickers, pencils & whistles to give to children who bring in their kits by Oct 3rd.
3rd & 4th Grades: Friday (Sep 26th) a ranger from Timpanogos Park will be visiting at 10:00
Fall Gala: Thank you to all of you who are working on donations for the Fall Gala. Please turn in all donations no later than Friday October 3rd. Remember the Gala is Saturday, October 11th, 6-10 pm (this is an adult event).
Tickets are now on sale at the school office, in the parking lot before & after school, or at Days Market. For anyone who would like to attend the Gala but cannot afford to purchase tickets, please talk to Mr. Weber regarding donated tickets.
The raffle was kicked off today, be sure to get the details from your student. We have great raffle prizes & fantastic incentive prizes for the kids to earn. Let’s see if we can beat last year’s outstanding $10,097.00 in raffle ticket sales. Thanks for your support!!! –The Fall Gala Committee

Rewards Program:The student who brings in the most items (Box Tops, Campbell’s labels, Tyson labels, Cream O’Weber milk caps, Nestle Pure Water labels & Fast Fixin’ Home Team Rewards) in any combination by this Friday, September 26th, will receive a family pass to Hogle Zoo! Each item counts as one point regardless of its value. Thank you Holly Tollman for donating the zoo passes!
Please keep sending in your Fast Fixin’ Home Team Rewards for the current race! So far 3rd grade is winning!
If you shop at Smith’s, Campbell’s has started a new promotion that will electronically give our school Campbell’s points every time you buy an eligible product using your Fresh Values Card! I urge everyone to sign up for this immediately at www.e-LabelsforEducation.com! It only takes a minute. Your children won’t receive credit for these points since I can’t track them, but it will really help us buy some great things for them! You can still send in your labels so your children receive credit for their class. (The school gets double points!) Please encourage your friends & relatives to sign up and help us save, too! This program is only for a few months, so stock up your food storage after you sign up!
Thank you! Jill at gljill1@msn.com
