GRANDPARENTS DAY

Our annual Grandparents Day will be held tomorrow, Nov. 22. Refreshments will be offered beginning at 9:00, followed by a program in the auditorium at 10:00. Following the program there will be an opportunity to visit the classrooms. Please invite grandparents and special "grandfriends" to attend this inspiring event. Parents, siblings, aunts, and uncles are also welcome! School will be dismissed at noon for our Thanksgiving break and there will be no after school care. Please make arrangements to have all students picked up at noon on this day before Thanksgiving.

Campbells Labels & Boxtops for Education

Please continue bringing in your labels and boxtops! Turn them in to the school office. SAA can redeem these for items the school can use. Please note: Campbells now requires the UPC code part of the label instead of the front of the label. Many, many products have the Boxtops for Education and Campbells Labels for Education - watch for them when you shop!
