The Spring Consignment Sale is quickly

approaching! We will have a huge selection of

spring/summer children’s clothing, plus toys, books,

games, baby gear, costumes, and maternity clothes

for sale.

In addition to shopping the sale, you are also

welcome to consign at the sale. This is a great

opportunity to clean out your closets and support

the school at the same time! If you are interested in

consigning, you will need a consignor code. Codes

are $5 each. Please come to the office to pay for your

code and pick up tags, the information packet, and a

pricing guide.

If you have any items you would like to donate to

the sale and give the school 100 % of the proceeds

(instead of the 50/50 split for the consignor and

the school), you can pick up some green tags in the

office and label them with code A1. Only donate

items that you do not want returned to you.

As you know, an event of this size can only be

successful with the help of many hands. Please

help us make the most of this sale, by signing up

for and completing your required volunteer shift.

If you have not received an email with a link to the

sign – up, please contact our chairwomen: Brittany

Hammond, Tiffany Lay, and Briana Teller at

consign4ccn@gmail.com.

Those of you who have signed up

for volunteer hours are welcome to

shop the pre-sale on Tuesday, March

18th from 5:30 PM – 6:30 PM.

Thursday is half price day!

KINDERGARTEN ORIENTATION:

If you are planning on sending your rising

kindergartner to public school in the fall, you will need to register them. Please contact

your designated school for more information on registration.

SAFETY REMINDERS

Keeping everyone safe is our number one priority.

Please hold your child’s hand in the parking lot

before and after school. Please remember to always

drive slowly. Thank you!

MARCH SNACKS

This month the children will enjoy: goldfish & apple

juice, cookies & apple juice, crackers & peanut butter,

after yourselves.
