Next week, our students are diving into the world of local government and community! To wrap things up, we’re hosting a Mock Town Meeting on Friday. The best part? The students will take the floor to debate and vote on our end-of-the-year field trip!

Attention Families,

The second and third grade math classes are partnering to raise money for the Central Vermont Humane Society by the sale of homemade dog biscuits. We are planning to make and bake the biscuits on Tuesday, March. 11th. We will then package them in bags of 5 biscuits each. The bags will be ready for pick up or to be sent home on Thursday and Friday March 12th and 13th.

We are using King Arthur’s Best Of Dog Breed recipe. The ingredients include: white whole wheat flour, rolled oats, nonfat dry milk, salt, eggs, and peanut butter. If you would like a bag of dog biscuits for a special dog in your life, please sign up below!

We are not charging a specific price for the biscuits. It is up to you. Donate what you would like. $1, $2, $5 ????? Anything is appreciated! Please send in cash or a check made out to CVHS by Wednesday, March 11th. We will send biscuits home on Thursday and Friday, March 12 and 13th.

THANK YOU!!!

Ainsley Burroughs, Lauralea Curavoo and the amazing second and third graders
