Trunk or Treat – We’re still in need of 9 cars for our event this Friday.  The event runs from 6:00-7:30PM.  The kids will trunk or treat for the first hour (or until we run out of goodies!) and then we’ll have our DJ running fun dance competition games until 7:30.  We’ll be selling pizza, water & glow items.  Hope you can join us!  To host a trunk, please contact Liz-Ann at lizann.deleon@gmail.com.  

Online Auction – Be sure to check out the catalog!  This is your chance to bid on our popular Calabash exclusives such as Teacher/Principal/PE Coach for the Day, the monthly birthday marquee message, Tea with Mrs. Rogan, and preferred seating to our school-wide Winter Show and Jaxx’s “Matilda” performances.  Please note that Teacher for the Day has been moved to 12/16.  Go to www.biddingforgood.com/calabashpto to place your bids.  Auction ends tomorrow, 10/21 at 9PM.  We suggest being on the site just before 9PM as bidding gets intense in those final minutes.

Red Ribbon Week – We’ll celebrate national Red Ribbon Week starting tomorrow, 10/21.  RRW activities teach students about the harmful effects of drugs and alcohol, and encourage them to stay healthy and be drug-free.  As a reminder and promise to themselves, students can participate by wearing a red ribbon all week and by dressing up with the daily theme.  Students will participate in activities throughout the week to learn about healthy habits.  Daily dress up days as follows:

Mon – “Be a hero and have the power to say no to drugs!” {wear a superhero shirt}

Tues – “My dreams are TOO important to do drugs” {wear pajamas}

Wed – “Use your head… don’t do drugs!” {wear a crazy hat, wig, hair, or all three!}

Thurs – “My future is drug-free” {wear any team t-shirt or jersey}

Fri – “Red Day” {wear red from head to toe}
