Pictures Needed

The Fifth Grade Committee will be working to put together a memory book for each fifth grader. 

Please email one baby photo and one kindergarten photo to memorial5thgradecommittee@gmail.com by February 16th.

If you are unable to e-mail the photos, bring hard copies to school with your child's name on the back.

The committee is also looking for group photos of the students throughout the years and from events this year.

Thank you!

The baskets will be raffled off at the event. If you are able to contribute, please send in items for the basket by March 3rd. A notice went home today with suggested items. Get your tickets to the Toast here!
