Just a reminder that this week will wrap up the Krispy Kreme fundraising for our 5th graders:

Please help with reminders this week for:

        1. Collection envelope payment made payable to MKS (one check/student would be great) are due Friday, January 20th 

        2. Donut Day is Friday, January 27th - students/parents will need to pick up their ordered items after school (there will be a table set-up for Krispy Kreme pickup in front of school).

        3. Organizers will not be responsible for donut dozens not picked up by 3:30 pm ( discount cards will be held...doughnuts will be eaten...)

Dine out night is this Thursday at BJ's in Glendale-no cooking, great food, fifth grade earns money..triple yay!
