ATTN COOKIE DOUGH FUNDRAISER PARTICIPANTS: If your student participated in our cookie dough fundraiser, we have a confirmed delivery date! The orders will be coming home tomorrow, Wednesday, October 15. If we determine that the order is manageable for your student to take home, we will send it with them. If the order is too large, we will need a parent to come pick it up after school that day. It MUST be picked up by 4:30 pm that day. We do not have freezer space to store items left behind. Thank you all for your support during this fundraiser!
