MES Playground Fundraiser
Now - February 10

Wouldn't you LOVE to TAPE up Mrs. Roden and raise money for the Hollow Park Playground Project?
Student council is sponsoring a fund raiser for The Woodbury Playground Project. We will be hosting a school wide fundraiser called "Dollars for Duct Tape". Each student will have the opportunity to purchase pieces of duct tape at a cost of $2.00 a foot. Students that purchase the duct tape will have the opportunity to tape our very own Principal "Mrs. Roden" to the wall. This challenge will run through 2/10/17. All donations will go towards purchasing a brick in the name of "Mitchell Elementary School" to benefit the Hollow Park Playground Project. All donations should be sent in an envelope with the child's name and marked "Dollars for Duct Tape".

Thank you for your continued support in making our community a better place.
