COOKIES NEEDED!!

The 15th annual Irving School COOKIE CRUMBLE and CRAFT FAIR is on Saturday, December 13, 2014. We need homemade holiday treats and are offering a surprise treat for the class that brings in the most cookies. There will be a graph in the hall by the office!

This is a great opportunity for families of Irving to share family traditions and raise money for important programs and improvements at the school.

Each participating family is asked to prepare five dozen of their favorite holiday cookies or confections and deliver them to the office on Friday, December 12th during school hours, or to the mini-gym on Saturday, December 13th between 7:30 & 9:00am. No chocolate chip, please. We will have curbside drop off from 8-9 in the front of the school.

On December 13th volunteers will set up the treats for sale in the mini-gym. Beginning at 9:00am, customers may purchase an empty box for $10.00 and then fill them with a variety of goodies for their holiday entertaining. What a bargain!!!

You don’t bake? No worries, you can help in another way. We need volunteers for setting up, maintaining during the event, and cleaning up afterwards!

You can sign up to bring cookies and volunteer HERE!!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED for Irving Book Fair, coming soon!

We are looking for another great crew of volunteers this year! We need people for set up, stapling and collating flyers, supervising classroom visits, working public sales hours, watching volunteers’ kids on the playground, and packing up the sale. Even if you can only work an hour, we’d love to have you, especially at dismissal!

Can’t come and help because of kids or your schedule? We have jobs you can do at home: making posters, baking treats for the teacher preview and our volunteers, or processing leftover teacher wish list items for the online book fair.  Just email Stephanie  atgremlin44@gmail.com.
Our Book Fair is such a great success due to our wonderful volunteers! Our kids get so excited when they see the Book Fair truck pull up, and watching their enthusiasm as they select books is really heart warming.
If you have any questions, contact
