The Holidays are fast approaching which means our annual Holiday Shop is getting close! This year we are doing things a little different and emphasizing the “giving” part of the holidays, each student will receive 1 “giving dollar” to spend on someone else in addition to doing any shopping for their families. The Giving Market will be at the Primary December 3-4 and at the Intermediate December 5-6. Please watch your teachers emails to see what time your child will go. Each year after the Thanksgiving break Holiday Shop takes over a room in both buildings and turns it into a gift shop. Students are invited to browse through a variety of items and select gifts for their loved ones. Although parent volunteers are available to help make suggestions and keep purchases within budget, students do most of the shopping on their own. There is nothing quite as special as watching their eyes light up when they find the perfect gift!
Gifts range in price from 50 cents to 15 dollars, so there are plenty of options for a variety of budgets. Many gifts are personalized with Mom/Dad or Grandma/Grandpa to name a few, so students can shop for everyone on their list. This year the selection will be entirely new.
Classroom teachers will let students know when they will be visiting Holiday Shop so they can bring money. Both checks and cash are accepted.
Want to help with the Holiday Shop?
We are in need of volunteers to help students shop for their families and wrap their gifts. Every volunteer will get a fun holiday necklace as well as $5 to spend at the shop! Please sign up if you can!
