2nd Installment Payment

January 9, 2012

Dear Parents/Guardians,

This is a reminder that the second installment of $25 for the Boston trip
is due on January 20th.

I also wanted to give you a quick update on our fundraising efforts. As
of today, we have raised over $12,000. However we still have a little
over $15,000 to go, so we need to continue the good effort in raising the
funds to ensure that we are able to go on this trip. We are currently
selling the tickets for the Calendar Raffle. We will also be doing a
bottle drive after the weekend of the Super Bowl and a Spaghetti Dinner,
which the date is still to be determined. Please remember that each
student does need to participate in at least three fundraisers or sell 20
calendar raffle tickets.

There has also been a change to the itinerary for the Boston trip. Blue
Man Group was sold out and therefore we will be going to see Sheer Madness
instead, which is a comedy whodunit, where the audience is part of the
show.

As a reminder, the date for the field trip is from May 23-25, 2012. You
can pay the remainder of your balance at any time. The third installment
of $25 will be due February 24th and the final installment will be due
April 6th. A full refund will be offered until April 1st. No student
will be denied going on this trip because of financial concerns. If you
need a scholarship, please let us know.
