Good Wednesday Morning, March 12, 2008
What a great day in the valley! And, another exciting day at AFES!
Registrations for the AFES Student Council Talent Show are coming in. Due to the number of interested students who are trying to put together they acts, we are extending the registration until Thursday, March 13th to give everyone who wants to perform a chance to register.
I want to give a BIG THANK YOU to those parents/community members that shop at Target and have designated AFES to receive Target’s “Take Charge of Education” donation. We received a check from Target for $25.85, based on 1% of purchases made using a REDcard (Target Visa Credit Card, Target Credit Card or Target Check Card). If anyone else uses any of these cards while shopping at Target, we would appreciate your support also.
Collect those Campbell Soup labels for AFES! You may send them in with your student or drop them off yourself. There is a Campbell Soup container in our lobby where they can be deposited.
Also, continue collecting those Box Tops! We are on a “Trip Across America”. Each Box Top = miles. Our goal is to go from Au Sable Forks Elementary to San Francisco. We are already to Kalamazoo, Mich. Our next town is Gary, Indiana. Can anyone name the Broadway Musical that has a song named “Gary, Indiana” in it? And better yet, can anyone name the younger actor that sang the song in the 1962 movie version of the musical? (The song appears twice in the play, the first time by the main character, the second time by this younger actor.)
The Au Sable Valley Players will be presenting a sampling of songs from their play “Grease” this afternoon at 1:30pm for the
students and staff of AFES. We look forward to seeing and hearing them perform. They will present the entire play in the
MSHS auditorium on March 13, 14, 15, at 7:30pm and March 16 at 2:00pm
The 6th grade will continue their NYS Math Test today.
I hope everyone has a great day! - Dean Lincoln
