3^rd Grade Eagles in Action 2021

3rd Grade is learning that Jesus is in all things (Colossians 1:17) and that includes our Eagles in Action service project in August and September. During the school year, 3^rd grade will use chapel offerings to purchase non-food items each month for the LaGrange Area Food Pantry that Snap or Link cards don’t cover like toothpaste, shampoo, soap, deodorant, or toilet paper, to name a few. We will also be collecting food items like cereal, pasta, and canned goods that can be dropped off during the Meals to Go Supper on Sunday, September 12^th. We will keep you posted on the items we purchase in the WINGS. Thank you for helping us serve in our community and share that Jesus is in all things!

Parents, Teachers, and Students are all important parts of our school family, and we wouldn't be successful if we didn't work together. To that end, all families are required to complete five (5) hours of volunteer service. Any family receiving financial assistance from St. John's Lutheran School will be required to complete ten (10) hours of volunteer service. Those families not completing their hours by May 13, 2022 will be charged a fee of $250.00.

Suggested ways to volunteer (not an all-inclusive list)

Any PTO event (i.e. Book Fair, Sock Hop, hot lunch [classroom parties excluded])

Basketball Tournament

Teacher task: cutting, labeling, etc.

FUNdraiser auction

Other opportunities will arise throughout the year and will be posted in Wings or your classroom newsletter.
