will be provided shortly thereafter. We have at least 6 teachers who have
volunteered to help out and we need parents and kids. (Parents do receive
credit toward their volunteer hours) All students that participate in
the full cleanup will receive free dress day on Tuesday, May 13th. Students
must sign in at the clean up, and wear a “Free Dress Pass”
badge on Free Dress Day.
