Bake Sale, April 20th to Benefit 1, 2, and 3 Graders

Our next bake sale will be Wednesday, April 20th. Proceeds of each month’s bake sale benefit the grades that are baking.  

This month the 1st, 2nd and 3rd grades will receive all of the money raised during the bake sale to help offset the cost of field trips.

To earn as much as possible, it is important to have a wide variety and large number of baked goods so please consider donating something either purchased or home-made.  Your participation is greatly appreciated!

 ALL ITEMS $.25 each

You may bake or bring fruit rolls, smart food, snacks, baked goods, etc...  All items, with the exception of cupcakes, should be individually wrapped.  Items can be dropped off the morning of the bake sale.

Bakers & Store-Bought Donations Needed!

We need help with our upcoming Bake Sale which will be Wednesday, October 28th. We need LOTS of folks to participate in order to make this successful. This bake sale benefits the 1st Grade.

Do you love to bake? We'd love your help! Please bag each item, except cupcakes.  Please note any allergens such as gluten, nuts, etc.

Short on time? Store-bought snacks such as crackers, granola bars, fruit snacks, juice boxes, fruit cups, etc are welcome also. If you provide something that needs a spoon or fork, kindly send those along as well.

Please label any containers you need returned to you with your child's name and teacher.

Thank you!
