One Last Opportunity to Shop the Fall Book Fair!!
Thank you so much for joining us for Donut Days on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday of last week. We hope you enjoyed the goodies and visiting the Book Fair with your UE Stars!
The UE 2022 Fall Book Fair will be open to parents & guardians one last time after the Halloween Parade on Monday, October 31st. This will be the last opportunity to purchase books at the fair. Thank you to everyone that bought books for their children and their teachers at the fair this year.
Happy Reading!!
The Coin Drive Starts on Monday 10/31
UE is holding a coin collection drive on October 31st - November 23rd to benefit "Blankets for Buddies," our school Martin Luther King Jr. Day of Service Project and the "Kindness Fund."
All of the proceeds from the coin drive are going to be used to help families in need and to purchase the materials needed to make special fleece blankets that will be donated to kids with long-term illnesses at Nemours Children's Hospital.
Please send in those coins!! Each grade level will compete to fill a jar with as many coins as possible!
The grade level with the tallest amount of coins at the end of the first collection period, ending on November 10 will win a special prize, and the grade level that raises the most money by the end of the coin drive on November 23rd will earn a movie party!
Reach out to Mr. D'Esposito with any questions: cdesposito@ucfsd.net
