The Give With Target Facebook promotion has closed for this year and we were able to earn $149 for Soleado! Many thanks to everyone who voted, and we hope it showed how easy fundraising can be! The Soleado Booster Club will use Target gift cards as contest and raffle prizes and for supplies throughout our fundraising year, so every vote mattered. Be sure to look for this promotion again next August and September and let's keep doing what we can for our school.
A very special thank you to Eva Ruiz, Noelle Whitaker and Jennifer Farrell for the fantastic SOUPER HERO staff luncheon!! Thank you also to the parents who cooked soup, donated supplies and additional goodies to treat the teaching staff.
A big thanks to the Book Fair Volunteers who gave up their time and effort to help kids find and purchase books at our week long event from Sep. 30 to Oct. 4. Thank you to our Book Fair coordinator Jennifer Wong for being there everyday and making sure all was running smooth. Set up and clean up volunteers had no small feat either. The Book Fair is a community effort that benefits everyone here at Soleado!
Thank you to the Korean Parents Asociation for donating $1,000 to our school! Principal Stutzel gladly accepted the check from KPA president Rosa Kim at our last PTA meeting |
