NEW FUNDRAISER

• The Middle School has started a new fundraiser using CLYNK a new recycle program that is located at Hannaford.  The way it works is that we provide you with a bag for your clean, dry bottles and cans, as a label with the Middle School’s CLYNK account number.  When you drop off the bag with our label, your returnable refund gets credited to the Middle School account.  You can simply drop off the bag – no waiting around, sorting, etc. necessary!  It has the potential to be a very successful and relatively effortless fundraiser!

  Bags and labels are available in Mrs. Beasley’s office. We can only hand out one bag at a time, but there will always be bags available.  We will also have a table set up in the main lobby during parent conferences.  You can pick one up, or have your child pick one up at any time.

  Thank you so much for participating!
