A reminder that students will return to school, in-person, on Thursday, November 7.

Bring in $1 (or more if you'd like) during Dollar Day on November 8 to get easy credit towards your fundraising for GLOBE Trot. Turn in your dollar(s) to your teacher so they can ensure it gets added to your individual and homeroom fundraising total. Please write the student's name, homeroom, grade, track and dollar amount on the envelope. And remember, our 10th annual GLOBE Trot will take place on Friday, November 15, 2024.

GLOBE families should have received log-in information from Qgiv to access your child's GLOBE Trot fundraising page. You can also search for your child’s name here or contact Andrew Dahl, board member and GLOBE Trot Committee lead, for help.

The 8th grade Leadership Class is launching Project Period, an initiative to enhance the quality of feminine hygiene products in our school bathrooms. While basic products are currently available, we are working to provide our students with higher-quality options. We're also collecting new underwear in all sizes.

How you can help: Donate new, unopened feminine hygiene products. Drop off items during morning carpool. Recommended Brands: Kotex U, Always, Playtex Sport, Tampax.

Collection dates: November 11 - December 6.

Your donations will help upgrade the products available to our students, ensuring they have access to the quality feminine hygiene items they prefer. Thank you for supporting this student-led initiative to enhance our existing resources.
