Our Class vs. Class runs through Thursday, May 24.

The class that collects the most box tops will receive a Popsicle party and gets to cheer their teacher on as he/she throws a pie at the principal during the school picnic in June!

Save those Box Tops and remember, cut them on the dotted lines!

Spring Running Club
April 18th - May 18th

Running Club will begin on Wednesday, April 18 and end on May 18. Kids will need to check in with their teachers in the morning and then come to the track. We will run from 7:30 to 7:50 a.m.

This Spring we will count laps on both Wednesday and Friday mornings to see how far the students at Pinchbeck can go. Eight laps around the track equals one mile. How many total miles will our kids go, can we make it to Disney (770 miles) or maybe the Grand Canyon (2,225 miles). If your child would like to participate click here to register. Children must be registered to participate. Make sure to ask them how many total miles they think our club will run. We will have two winners, one from grades K-2 and one from grades 3-5.

As always Running Club can not happen without parent volunteers. Please sign up if you can help one morning. Volunteers would need to be at the track from 7:20-8:00.

Juice Box Recycling
 

Pinchbeck is recycling juice pouches in the cafeteria during lunch and can earn $.02 per pouch! When you pack your kids lunch, use plastic/aluminum juices like HonestKids and Capri Sun and remind them to drop their empty pouch in the bin by the trash. By Earth Day in April, we hope to have quite a collection and a fundraising accomplishment to announce! Please support this effort and save them at home too!
