The PTA reminds you that Campbells no longer accepts the
front panels from their cans. They will only accept the
UPC symbol. For a complete guide to what you should save
and which products are eligible,
download the official rules. This is a very
important program; the 2006-07 collection earned the
district a new projector!
-
Membership—PTA membership is open to anyone and is still
available for only $5.00. You can pick up membership
forms in the Elementary or Middle School offices, or
call Jacki York (853-1809). Thanks to everyone who has
already joined PTA.

Don't forget to save your Box Tops and register your
Price Chopper card.

Yearbook Update—The PTA is already planning the
2007-2008 yearbook. The yearbook will have 48 full color
pages. The price will once again be $10. There will be
an order form sent home.

There is a Toys For Tots donation box located in the
Elementary Office. All donations will be distributed to
Fonda-Fultonville families. Please stop by and donate a
new, unwrapped toy or book and help our local children
have a happy holiday.

The next PTA meeting will be on Dec. 18 at 6:30 p.m. in
the Elementary School Library. Hope to see you there!
Unity
I dreamed I stood in a studio and watched two sculptors there.
The clay they used was a young child’s mind.
And they fashioned it with care.
One was a teacher; the tools he used were books, music and art;
One a parent with a guiding hand and a gentle and loving heart.
Day after day the teacher toiled, with touch that was deft and
sure,
While the parent labored by his side and polished and smoothed
it o’er.
And when at last their tasks were done, they were proud of what
they had wrought,
For the things they molded into the child could neither be sold
or bought.
And each agreed he would have failed if he had worked alone.
For behind the parent stood the school, and behind the teacher,
the home.
