James Patterson is teaming with Scholastic to donate $1.25 million to school libraries! Any number of us can apply for this grant, and if a grant is awarded, we will get a matching number of scholastic points. The deadline is <span style="color: blue;">May 31st</span></span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS';"><span style="color: blue;"> </span>and it only takes about 10 minutes to complete.</span></span><br />
<div style="text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="background-color: white; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS';"><br /></span></span></div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 11px; text-align: center;">
Jamie Allbach has requested very nice tables and chairs for our students - below is what one parent submitted that gives all the details and costs you'll need to include. (Please feel free to re-word the submission.)</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 11px; text-align: center;">
Just go to: <a href="http://click.icptrack.com/icp/relay.php?r=35284383&msgid=1860496&act=QE7H&c=994175&destination=http%3A%2F%2Fscholastic.com%2Fpattersonpartnership" style="color: #1155cc;" target="_blank">scholastic.com/<wbr></wbr>pattersonpartnership</a> - and here's a sample submission to copy and paste:</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 11px; text-align: center;">
We would purchase ergonomic chairs and height-adjustable tables for our students to use in the media center. Our media center has been under renovation gradually this past year to create spaces for different kinds of learning, to better integrate technology and various media, and to better serve our students. New furniture is a big expense that we are still trying to fund.</div>
<div style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS'; font-size: 11px;">
</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
The desired chairs move so children are more comfortable, focus better, and have improved posture. The chairs are $141 each, and we need 28 for a total of $3,948. The tables we want can be raised for students to use while standing -- for example, working on robotics projects. They can also be lowered to fit the youngest kindergartners. The tables are $937.50 each, and we need 7 for a total of $6,562.50.</div>

<span style="color: black;">Will Hornaday exemplifies an exemplary male parent at Claxton who has connected other fathers to the volunteer network with the development of the “Bear Pack”. Will has gladly volunteered to serve on the PTO as Chair of Yearbook for 2 years, offered his graphic design services “pro bono”, and served as a room representative in his son’s classroom. He always signs up to volunteer for school events, organizes the efforts of the Bear Pack, and delivers the MANNA food bags to our students in need EVERY WEEK! He is overall a great guy, with a passion for public education.</span><u></u><u></u></div>
