A parent or other responsible adult must be with your child when the bell rings at 1:00 until it ends at 3:00. Be sure your child knows where to meet you! Please sign up for class booths through the sign-up genius sent by your room mom. We couldn’t run the Fall Festival without you!

All children of Cougar Contributors Silver Level and up will automatically receive wristbands. Wristbands and tickets can be bought for $35 at the event beginning at 12:30 pm. But remember, buying in advance saves you time and money!

CRESTLINE LIBRARY: The Crestline Library relies on parent volunteers to help shelve books that are checked in each week. Volunteering in the library is a flexible commitment and is an easy way to get involved. The librarians are so appreciative of the support that comes from the volunteers! Sign up to help HERE

BOXTOPS: Boxtops will be moving to all digital submissions soon. There will be more to come on how to submit those in next month’s ENews. For now, please send in all of the Boxtops you clipped over the summer. You can submit them to your homeroom teacher.
