Dear Parent / Guardian:
We have a very busy schedule planned for the month of March!
In regards to a fundraiser idea to celebrate the season of Easter, a few students suggested a sale of plastic colored Easter egg containers (sold at drugstores, Safeway, or/and Target?) filled with miniature, foil wrapped, chocolate Easter eggs; to be sold for $1.50(?). I did introduce this idea at the last in-class PTO meeting and the parents present did not disagree with this fundraiser idea. Could you possibly help by donating these plastic Easter egg containers or / and small goodies (candy) to place inside them? If your answer is “yes”, then please send these materials with your child to school as soon as possible. We should be able to sell these items before the Easter vacation.
Our last field trip to Good Tidings Art Studio is scheduled for Tuesday, March 16th, from 8:40 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. (includes transportation from and return to school).
I am also excited about another upcoming field trip to Japantown (since we are studying Japan in Social Studies). This field trip includes a free guided tour of the Japantown area. A volunteer will be conducting the tour; I am asking that a $1.00 donation from each student be presented to the Japanese organization as our gesture of gratitude. The field trip to Japantown is scheduled for Thursday, March 11th; we will leave school at 9:00 a.m.and return to school at 1:00 p.m. (approximately). More parent-chaperones would really help make the trip more enjoyable!
Ms. Coreen Abbott, an Art Instructor from the Museo-Italiano, is coming to visit and teach the seventh graders about the Italian Renaissance and have the students work on an elaborate Art project. Again, to express our gratitude for Ms. Abbott’s time, art materials, and instruction for the two-three days, please provide a donation of $1.00.
Looking forward to seeing you during the Parent-Teacher conference week!
Sincerely,
Mrs. Sharon Owyang-Lee
Grade 7 Teacher
Mission Dolores School
