Dear Parents:

Here is your Explore Knowledge Academy Elementary Campus Parent Update.

Lost and Found

The Lost and Found box is once again filling up fast.  With the weather changing as quickly as it does, it is easy to leave jackets and sweaters behind.  Please stop in and check through Lost and Found and see if any of it is your child’s.

Fresh&Easy Fund Raiser

What a great success this was!  We raised approximately $1800 to go toward our lunch program.  Congratulations and thanks go out to all the parents and students who brought in receipts.

A Piece of Love

Explore Knowledge Academy has so much love that we want to share it with our Community! Please give a piece of yours by participating in this heartwarming opportunity. All you need to do is crochet or knit at least one 7" x 9" piece. The NHS/NJHS will collect the pieces and sew them together to make afghans. They will then donate them to The Shade Tree. They will also include a personalized note with each one so the recipients can know who sent their love. The more pieces we are able to collect the more lives we will be able to touch. Don't know how to knit or crochet? Mrs. Chapman said she would be happy to set up a little mini class to teach us!  Thank you to all the parents and students who have brought pieces so far, keep them coming!

Free Knitting/Crochet Class

All the students have been so excited to learn to knit.  There will be free knitting classes at lunchtimes on Wednesdays.  Any parents wishing to donate yarn, knitting and crochet needles, it would be greatly appreciated.

Art Supply Donations

We are looking for donations of art supplies.  Anything from paper, brushes, paints, yarn, buttons, glues, ribbons, scissors…anything.  Let your mind go wild.  Community Lane and Sandhill Campus’ will have marked donation boxes in the front offices.

PTSA Meeting

The next PTSA meeting will be held Friday, February 19th at 9 AM, in the lunchroom of the Sandhill Campus.  They are looking for new and exciting fundraising ideas.  Bring your ideas and come have a cup of coffee with them.
