Spark After Dark & More



Hello 5th Grade Room Parents, 

We are putting together grade level raffle packages for SPARK After Dark.  The 5th Grade theme is New Orleans Vacation.  So far we are fortunate to have a generous donation of 3 nights/4 days stay in a condo in the French Quarter with two king beds and two baths, just a couple streets from Bourbon Street. 

Please reach out to your classroom parents for items to add to this package to make it even more fabulous.  The grade with the biggest package will win 30 minutes of extra recess!  

Other items that might work in this package are bottles of wine, cajun spices & food items, restaurant gift cards, Louisiana hot sauce, red beans, Saints t-shirt, jambalaya, Beignet mix, Coffee & Chicory, Sazerac ingredients, masks, beads etc., or a cash contribution of any amount so we can buy additional items.  

Coordinate donations through Jill Gossett at jillglynndrew@yahoo.com.  She is very kindly collecting items to put in the package for the event. 

Thank you!

Tahmida and Lisa Marie

*** Is your class doing a Class Art Project for SPARK After Dark? Let us know! ***

As you know, SPARK After Dark, our major fundraising event for the school, is March 21. Student-made art pieces make extremely popular auction items. They are auction GOLD!! The process of creating auction items is a fun class experience as well. We would LOVE your participation. We know some of you are already hard at work creating projects and we need to know which ones are underway. For those who don't have projects yet, we can help. Please go to the SignUp below and let us know what art piece, if any, your class is doing for the auction. Just to reiterate, we will HELP with ideas and manpower if you don't have a project yet. We just need to know!

Questions? Contact Holly Painter, who is our Auction Art Project Lead, at hpaint@hotmail.com or 404-931-0159.


THANK YOU!
