Dear Families,

It was great to see so many families out for the PAC’s hugely successful Family Glow Dance. A BIG THANK YOU to all the PAC volunteers that made the event possible!!! Items for this week are below:

1. PAC TREAT Sale After School Tuesday!!!

Tomorrow after school the PAC is hosting a $1 treat sale to sell out the remaining treat items from the dance. The PAC will be selling chips, cupcakes, candy and other treats at the front of the school and at the back of the school by the maze. All proceeds will help support PAC initiatives. Please bring small change if you can.

2. This week the Scholastic Book Fair is in the HIVE. If you wish to view online what books are available simply click this link . Thank you for supporting our library programs!

Online ordering is open from February 6th to 17th. Pick up is on Friday, February 24th at the school from 2-2:45pm. Global Coffee is organically and ethically sourced coffee available in whole bean or ground. Packaged in 1lb (16oz) re-sealable bags with valves. Fresh roasted in Maple Ridge, BC.

4. The next PAC meeting will be held THIS Thursday, February 9th, 7pm. All parents and guardians of c’usqunela students are members of the PAC and welcome to attend meetings. Hope to see you there!
5. Putting on the Glitz – Do you know a sd42 student who is graduating this year and in need of some support to put on the glitz for grad?Are you a seamstress, hair or make up artist who could donate their time to help make grads feel their best? Do you have formal wear or accessories that a graduating student could wear?

Putting on the Glitz is a grassroots initiative involving PLEA employees, representatives from Ridge Meadows community service agencies, local business and other partners. We all work together to provide local high school graduates in need with formal attire so that they can attend their graduation festivities with pride. Without such assistance many of these students could not afford to participate in celebrating this important milestone. We are always accepting donations of gently used grad dresses and accessories. And we are always in need of volunteers on the day of the event. If you are able to help or would like more information please contact Michelle Cherak (mcherak@plea.bc.ca)

The event on March 14th is at Thomas Haney Secondary School Maple Ridge.

Mr. Wheatley
