Dear CT and Loma Families,
My Top 3 Moments of the Week...
- Watching the hilarious sketches from Mrs. Hulewat’s Performing Arts Class production of Fractured Fairytales!
- Getting to do holiday crafts with Loma kids. It certainly is the season for extra glitter!
- Chatting with a 3rdgrade student about the intricacies of building an “epic” Minecraft city.
Keep Sending in Your Cans for the Holiday Food Drive!
The Loma Student Council and the C.T. English Leo’s Club have joined forces this year to help people in need. They will be running a food drive through the Second Harvest Food Bank. Please consider sending any non-perishable food items to school if you would like to donate. The most requested items are canned tuna, peanut butter, canned soup, canned chili, canned beans, canned fruits or vegetables, sealed bags of pasta or whole grain rice, and oats. The food drive will run through December 18th. Thank you for your support!

HELP NEEDED THIS WEEKEND: GOODWILL TRUCK
We need parent and student volunteers to sign up for this fundraiser! Our needs are one parent per 2-hour shift. The Home and School Club board members cannot and should not have to do all of the fundraising alone. WE NEED YOU TO HELP!
IT IS FUN (even in the rain)! You get to talk with community members, meet new people, hand out donation receipts to people, and help the HSC raise money. It is easy and fun, I promise!!
Over the past few years and multiple Goodwill Truck fundraisers, we have raised more than $18,000! As it becomes more and more popular with our mountain community, residents look forward to donating in this way, especially before the holidays. Please do your part in keeping this wonderful fundraiser going for our students and staff as well as for the mountain community!
