Bake Sale Success!

Wow!!!   😲 I am amazed with how the bake sale went this week!

Thank you all for bringing in your amazing treats and iced tea.  Your children demonstrated maturity, independence and hard work.  They all showed enthusiasm and worked together to make it successful.  Way to go grade 4's!!!  We will be counting the money made on Monday morning with Mrs. CJ's class, but I can say it was very profitable.  I hope all of you received your containers, etc. If not, we will sort it out on Monday.

Thank you again.
