POQA will be coming around this week collecting (Tuesday) pennies and nickels. (Wednesday) dimes. (Thursday) quarters. (Friday) Dollars (Dollar dress down day). We hope to be able to collect enough to purchase a well for these children in Africa. 

Tuesday April 16th Bell Photography will be at the school for personality portraits. If you DO NOT want your child to get their picture taken, please send back the form I sent home today in homework folders signed. If you do not return the flyer, or a note, your student will be photographed. You are not under any obligation to buy the photographs. Please do not send money on this day. They will send home a package for you later to review the picture before you buy. 

Library Books are due tomorrow! Please don’t forget to send them with your student so they can check out another book! 

Are you having a difficult time getting your volunteer hours? Would you like to help the school and buy out your hours?  A donation of $150 will take care of your 30 hours for the 2018-2019 school year. If you don’t need your full 30 hours you can make a donation of $5 per hour you need. This donation will be used to put nice stamped cement along the front of the school where the grass won’t grow and creates a mud mess.  If you’re interested in volunteering and need ideas, please contact your students teacher or POQA.  If you have contact information for a person who lays cement or a person who can move a tree, please let Kitty McKissen at poqavp@gmail.com know. If you are unsure how many hours you have, refer to the email you received the beginning of the month from Help Counter or contact Catherine Sumner at csumner@questac.org  Please take your cash or check donation to Q1 or Q2 office.  If you need a receipt, let the office ladies know and POQA will gladly write one for you. Thank you for volunteering and helping make Quest the BEST!!!
