Principal Note
Kick-A-Thon
Each year at the St. Charles East vs. St. Charles North football game, our community holds the Kick-A-Thon event to help raise money for local 501 (c3) charities: Living Well Cancer Resource Center, Fox Valley Food for Health, and the American Cancer Society. To date, the Kick-A-Thon event has raised over a million dollars!
Next week we will have a donation jar for any student/family who would like to donate to this wonderful cause. Students choosing to donate a few dollars or loose change, should place the money in an envelope with his or her name on it, and it will be collected by Munhall staff. In addition, during lunch, our students will be signing a Munhall banner, which will be used in a Kick-A-Thon parade prior to the start of the football game. The STC East vs. North football game is next Friday, October 8th.

International Walk to School Day
Next Wednesday, October 6th is National Walk to School Day. We are proud to partner with our PTO and the Kane County Health Department for this fun and worthy event. I hope we are blessed with great weather, and families choose to take part in this event that promotes health, wellness, and environmental consciousness.
