Good evening, Farm Life Families! It's time to gear up for this year's PTA Glow Run! You should have received a paper in your child's folder on Friday that has all the fun details you need to know to kickstart our spring fundraiser! You first need to register your child, and they will receive a neon 2026 SFL Glow Run Champion backpack keychain while supplies last! Once registered, you'll receive a link for their very own fundraiser page. You can easily send that link to your family, family friends, neighbors, co-workers, and anyone you know that would be interested in supporting your child's school. The first teacher to have every child in her class registered is going to win a Target gift card. Our PTA has a lot of super fun and exciting prizes each student can receive to help them really GLOW on run day and beyond! Also, every student will receive a T-shirt to wear on run day. You'll need to add their shirt size when you register them to guarantee they receive their correct size. Every dollar raised stays within the school. Your donations go directly towards supporting our teachers and staff, improving our facilities, and funding student programs and enrichment activities all year long! Let’s make this year’s Glow Run extra bright and GLOW crazy!
Happenings for this week include:
16: Required Workday-no school for students
17: 5th grade Science Check In #2
19: Classroom picture day-this was rescheduled due to the snow
20: Interim reports go home
This week’s items for our K-Kids animal shelter donations include toys and beds for cats and dogs, collars, leashes and flea treatments.
The window for making a student transfer or discretionary admission request for the 2026-2027 school year is February 1-28. Moore County Schools is again implementing an online process this year. Student transfers and Discretionary Admission MUST be applied for and approved annually for ALL students attending a school outside of their domiciled attendance area. For more information and a link to the online application please visit https://bit.ly/MCSTransfers .
Kindergarten Registration for MCS is March 27th. Please help us pass the word around to all your friends and neighbors who may have students entering kindergarten next fall. This helps us plan for staffing for next year… the sooner students are registered the better!
Ms. Powell, on Bus 220, will be out again this week. We will keep you posted on a return date.
The dates for the rest of February and now March can be found on the email version of this message.
Have a great evening! As always…Trojans Lead the Way! Enjoy the Ride!
