2019-2020 Committee Signups are open!

 

Visit our SignUp Genius to join any open committee. Whether you work outside the home or in, there are ways to contribute! Thank you for supporting our teachers and our students and their families! We especially need someone for School Supply Kits, a great job for someone who works during the day and can only volunteer nights and weekends!

Recycle your markers! 

 

District 3 is participating in the Crayola Colorcycle program! There are now boxes set up at ARS, FRGMS, and FRG Library where old markers can be deposited. Once we gather a full box, Crayola will pay for us to ship them back and they will recycle them! Any plastic marker can be recycled, including washable markers, highlighters, permanent markers, and dry erase markers. So don't throw away those old dried out markers at home! Have your child bring them into school so that they can be recycled - boxes will be out for the remainder of the school year!
