The Book Fair is coming to Payne!!!!
March 14 – March 17

You may have noticed fliers around school last week about our book fair!  More information will be sent home in the coming weeks about how and when to purchase books.

• The book fair will ‘launch’ at Math Night, on Tuesday March 14th from 6 – 8 pm.
• Volunteers are needed for 1-hour shifts before & after school, and during lunch. 
• If you are available and interested in volunteering, please sign up on the link below. This will help us guarantee we are able to keep the fair open every day!

Robotics Club
Our Robotics Club won the Elementary School Excellence Award and has qualified for the 2017 VEX Worlds Championship in Louisville, KY this April! We are hoping to raise enough funds to pay for the registration, bus fare, and lodging so our students can take advantage of this exciting opportunity!

Classroom Libraries
We are raising monies to purchase Scholastic Libraries (300 books each!) for the 4th and 5th grade classrooms.

The attached link has more details. Donations are tax deductible. Please reach out with any questions and feel free to share this information with others!

Save the date for Payne’s 1st Annual Spring Auction – Thursday, April 13th!  If you would like to volunteer and/or organize your classroom’s themed auction basket, contact Charles Swartz.
