Fourth Grade Fundraiser

     The fourth grade classes are planning a small fundraiser for next week.  They read A Long Walk to Water by Linda Sue Park and would like to send money to the Water for South Sudan nonprofit organization to build a well.  The fourth grade classes are making items to sell on May 29^th  in the morning.  Each item will be priced at $.50.  The fourth graders would be very appreciative of any support that you can give next Wednesday.

Bus Stops for the 19-20 School Year

      Just a reminder that at the end of this school year all bus stops default back to the student’s home address.  If you would like for your child to be dropped off or picked up next school year other than their home address the bus garage will need a new permission slip, from the parent or guardian, to change the students stops to somewhere other than their residence.  Avoid the August rush and you can start sending your letters to the bus garage on July 1^st.  You can fax them to 419-884-1821, or send requests to 103 Clever Lane, Lexington, Ohio 44904 Attention: Transportation.
