Easy Money in 2012
According to the USDA, the average family of 4 spends between $600 and $1,000 in December on groceries. If every Forest Park family uses a Kroger gift card for all their holiday grocery shopping, our school could receive a big, fat check in the new year. Five percent of every purchase goes to help out our school, so remember to load your Kroger gift card and use it every time you shop. For more information on purchasing and using a Kroger Gift Card, please contact Laura Reeves.

The Gift of Reading
Looking for a great holiday gift for your child's teacher? How about the gift that keeps on giving? No, not the Jelly-of-the-Month Club! Dedicate a new library book for just $20. It will include a personalized nameplate that can look something like this...
Merry Christmas, Mrs. Riley!
Love,
Davis Ross

Contact Matty Ross for more information. This is much better than 12 months worth of jelly.
