Work Day



A huge THANK YOU to all the people that came last Saturday for work day. Each month a day will be designated as a CNS work day. So, if you were unable to attend this past one, there will be many more opportunities. Watch for details.





Hot Lunch



I've had a parent talk to me about the possibility of offering another Hot Lunch Day in addition to Pizza day. She checked into Don Taco and the cost for a chicken taco would be $1.65 or vegetable taco for $1.15. If there is enough interest I would check with a current family that could offer the same or similar entree. There is a survey list located on the bulletin board near the main stairs. Please take a moment to let me know if there's interest. Thanks!!





Tae Kwon Do



I meet with a gentlemen, Lee Valerius, who is interested in conducting Tae Kwon Do classes. These classes would be held here after school, a couple times a week for all age students. Watch for a letter from Lee. (Sounds Fun!!!!)



FUND-RAISERS



Golf Scramble

Our first major fund-raiser is scheduled for Sunday, October 19th at Midland Hills Golf Course. Our limit is 15 (4 person) teams. So, far we have plenty of room for teams. If you are interested in participating or know someone that enjoys golf, please make sure they know about the scramble. Many of us that play, aren't serious golfers, we just want to have fun and support our school. Businesses can also sponsor a hole for $50.00. There is a sign up sheet in the foyer for food donations and volunteers for that date.









Kroger Card

The office has one Kroger card left. If you're interested in purchasing a card, let Monique or Linda know so that more cards can be ordered.







That's all folks and Have a happy October!
