🦃 Time to FEATHER the Staff Turkeys! 🦃
Get ready for some Thanksgiving fun and school spirit! Our Turkey Feather Fundraiser is officially underway!
How it works:
Buy Feathers: Feathers cost just $1 each!
Submit Orders: Turn in feather orders and money to the main office now through Friday, November 13th.
Follow the Progress: Feathers will be added to the "staff turkeys" displayed in the lunch room so students can watch their favorite staff member's feather count grow!
The Winner: At the end of the contest, the winning staff member will wear a full turkey costume for an entire day! 🦃
