Hoodies and Jackets
NEEDED:
Hoodie sizes for all students going on
Washington DC trip and
JPT jacket sizes for those
students needing to purchase one. Unfortunately, we cannot wait until we get
back to school, or we will not get the merchandise in time for the trip. At
this time, we hope to include the hoodie for all students on the trip. Any
adults or students wanting a hoodie, that is not on the trip, the cost is
$25.00. Jackets are required for all students and need to be purchased at
the reduced rate of $42.00 for sizes small, medium, large and x-large. 2XL
price is $45.00 and 3XL is $46.00. Please contact
Debbie Rabinowitz
immediately if you are... 1. interested in purchasing a jacket at this
reduced rate, 2. interested in purchasing a hoodie, OR 3. still need to give
your hoodie size. In addition, all students should have paid their fair
share and at least $250.00 deposit towards the trip. This is now past due.

Car Wash #2 Info
We did
so well at the last car wash, that we decided to have another car wash
this Saturday, December 27th from 9 AM - 3 PM at the
Advanced Auto Parts Store on University Drive and Riverside Drive.
Please email Debbie Rabinowitz if you can work
either the 9-12 shift,
12-3 shift or all day 9-3 shift.
(12/12/2008) Important DC Info
At 8:00 am this morning,
additional members being added
to the DC trip was stopped due
to space issues. We are now
creating a waiting list for
those wishing to get on board
and will add additional
personnel as others decide they
will not be able to afford the
projected $500.00 cost of the
trip (the actual cost is approx.
$855.00), or get their
outstanding Fair Shares cleared.
We hope that donations will
cover the additional cost we are
facing for hotel rooms, but this
is no guarantee. If someone
needs to back-out, now is the
time. Paper work for
security clearances is
being completed this week and
must be finalized by Tuesday of
next week. Final decisions need
to be made NOW. Please return
the
SS request form that was
sent home today with your child.
This is very important and
needs to be in our hands by
Monday 12/15/2008.
