Shining Light has partnered with FCC to host a Food Pantry on Saturday, November 1st.  Our school will be unique in that we are asking for donations of FRESH FOOD.  Because of this, we will have to be very specific about when you bring your donations to Shining Light.

We will collect fresh items on only two days:

Wednesday, October 29

Thursday, October 30

OR

You may bring your items before 8:00 AM on 

Saturday, November 1st.

Fresh Items that we hope to collect:  all kinds of potatoes, onions, carrots, peppers, zucchini, squash, tomatoes, beans, apples, or oranges.

Shining Light will have a special table set up at the Food Pantry that day.  We are excited to be able to offer this to families in our community who need some help.  If you would like to volunteer that day, we would love to have you.  Just e-mail me and let me know that you would like to help serve. The class that collects the most bags of food will win a PIZZA PARTY!

Fall Parties

Our fall parties will be on October 29th and 30th. We will do a costume parade around the school. We would love to see the kids in their costumes as long as they are not scary. We will be collecting $1 from each child for mini pumpkins. Please have the money in by October 21st. 

Car Lane
Car lane is off to a great start and we appreciate your patience. Please remember to park in the parking lot off of 96 if you are walking your child in. This will make it a little easier and safer for those using car lane. 

Scholastic book orders are placed on the 15th and 30th of each month. Remember that when you buy books your child's classroom gets free books too. Our school code is GPTH7 and the orders are shipped to our school.
