The Fundraising committee needs a volunteer to chair our annual Pledge campaign this fall. Tasks include printing and distributing pledge letters, keeping a database of pledge amounts, sending reminders and thank-you letters. This is a great job if you aren't available during school hours. It can be done from home, in the evenings or on the weekends.

Hola, queridas familias de Santa Rosa Charter.

This Friday, September 16, at 8:30 am, there will be a special assembly to honor Mexican Independence Day as well as Patriot Day, the 10th anniversary of Sept. 11, and the anniversary of our national anthem.  The assembly will be led by our middle school A1 Spanish class.  Parents are welcome.

GARDEN: 

Can you connect us with a craft fair location?

The Parents’ Club and the ECC program are planning another craft fair fundraiser for this holiday season. We would like to hold it in conjunction with a Pancake Breakfast (this part of the fundraiser will benefit the ECC programs).  We are looking at dates in November and December, and we need a location with a commercial kitchen in order to include the pancake breakfast. Do you know of a building we could rent or use for this event? 

Welcome back everyone.  I hope you all enjoyed the 3 day weekend.  Please read on for important eScrip updates and the schedule so all you awesome volunteers can sign up to help collect receipts in front of our local Safeways.

The eScrip redemption/collection period begins Monday September 19th and continues through Thursday October 13th.  Mark your calendars and encourage all your friends and family to do the same so we can collect as many receipts during the redemption period as possible.

The date is set! Pump houses are being pumped and golf clubs are being polished, all in preparation of this year's Father's Club Community Celebration on October 15th. There will be a huge BBQ, music, bounce houses, kids' golf tournament and a night-time glo ball tourney for the grown ups. Save the date and join your friends for some family fun! All proceeds from this great event will go directly to the school. For more information, go to www.srecdads.com.
