Bullpup Families,
Our Annual Citrus Sale is underway! SMS students are selling half-bushels of oranges or grapefruits to support student activities and classroom needs after the Big Remodel. This is our ONLY school-wide fundraiser of the year. It is entirely digital -- credit cards only. Students should not go door-to-door or collect any cash at all.
Again this year you have the really cool option to purchase a case or two for donation straight to the Bonner Community Food Bank. Last year our Bullpup Community donated over 100 cases of fresh fruit to them -- a great little Christmas Vitamin C bonus for our neighbors in need! Please consider purchasing one for yourself and one for a neighbor.
The sale will run through December 1st. The fruit will be ready for pick up here at SMS either December 11th or December 14th -- it's being trucked straight from a grove in California, so we won't know the exact delivery date until later. You will receive confirmation of the pick-up times directly before the day.
Our schoolwide goal is that every student sells at least one box. For every box they sell, they earn one entry in a raffle to be drawn on December 18. The grand prize is a new iPad. We're also giving away several sets of ear buds, coffee stand gift cards, SMS swag, and some snack bundles. The best prize, however, will be the support they drum up for all of the great things we do here at SMS!
Please do consider supporting SMS by clicking on the link above!
Thanks!
