News & Reminders
EVERY parent or caregiver of EVERY student is a MEMBER! We have the privilege of coming alongside our school.....helping it achieve the vision of quality, Christ-centered education for our covenant children.
Cookie Walk - starts TOMORROW!!

Cookie drop off is Friday from 12:00pm - 7:00pm and the Cookie Walk is Friday from 4:30pm - 7:30pm and Saturday from 8:00am - 11:00am. Each family (K-8) provides eight dozen festive cookies.

  • Decorative trays will be available to use for FREE. There are a few left if you still need to pick them up.
  • Please label your items with a descriptive name (peanut butter bonbons, chocolate toffee bites, raspberry truffles, etc.).
  • Please bring your cookies as early as possible since we will be selling on Friday. Once people start lining up to purchase cookies, all families dropping off cookies must use the elevator to avoid congestion on the stairway.

Cookie Requirements
PICTURES of cookies from past years are on the website for ideas! Go to http://www.orangecitychristian.net/ and find the Monica link on the Parents page.

You can also look at the attached list for ideas: Cookie List .

Things to remember:
  • The Cookie should be worth approximately $.75 each (size & appearance).
  • Remember to make them festive!
  • Cookies that are always a hit are almond tarts, decorated sugar cookie cut-outs, bonbons & pecan tassies. Recipes for "Classic" Monica cookies are available in the school office.
  • Cookies should be fresh & not made ahead of time & frozen prior to the Cookie Walk.
  • Do not decorate cookies with gel because it smears onto other cookies.
  • Sugar cookies need to be neatly frosted & decorated.
  • Gingersnaps must be dipped or decorated…no plain ones.
  • Almond Tarts should have white frosting applied with a decorator tip. These sell best.
  • Bonbons, truffles, fudges and 'sticky items' (pecan chews) must be in liners (mini muffin liners).
