PureArt Cards Fundraiser

This year, we have added a new fundraiser which will benefit the Art Department. PureArt Cards (click name to go to their website) is a local company in Portland which makes holiday cards, checkbook covers, note cards, necklaces, etc. using YOUR child's artwork. Over the next three weeks, Laura Devin will be having every student at WCS make a piece of artwork. On Oct 9th, a packet will go home to parents on ordering information. When a parent places an order, they will receive it all with their child's artwork on it. We will profit 60% of all orders which is incredible! All products will be delivered back to parents before Thanksgiving break.

Updates

It was great to meet some new faces and see returning parents at the WCS Open House last week. Because that event took the place of our normal meeting, I wanted to touch base on a few items:

1) Scholastic Book Fair - Our first book fair of the year starts on Monday, Sept 21 thru Friday, Sept 25th. It will be open during normal school hours. If you are interested in volunteering, please contact Stefanie McElman at mainco@suscom-maine.net. Shifts for volunteers are 8a - 12p and 12p - 3p.

2) Sarah Savard is looking into whether we could hold a "Trick or Trunk" in the parking lot followed by a family dance on Oct 30 or 31st. Will update everyone as information is gained.

3) Laura Devin would like us to split the cost of the Share Center this year again. It is based on how many students we have and as I get the final amount needed I will update.

4) Our new wrapping paper catalog, Sally Foster Fundraiser will begin Oct 26 - Nov 13th.

Our next meeting will be on Thursday, Oct 8 at 6p at WCS. Hope to see you all soon!
