This year we are going to have a traveling trophy each month to the homeroom with the most Box Tops for Educations sent in. The trophy will go to the homeroom with the most Box Tops sent in by Tuesday, December 22nd.

Our goal this year is to raise $2,500 from Box Tops.  The money raised will help and go toward Arts and Enrichment for ALL the Ryan Students.

Keep a look out for further contests this year as well.

COAT DRIVE
The coat collection this year will run until the first of January. The bin is located in the Ryan School Lobby. All sizes of gently used coats are welcome (adult, child, baby). No rips, missing buttons, broken zippers, or permanent stains. Anton's will clean your coat and then distribute it through human service providers.

RECYCLE THAT
Donate your unwanted books and clothing now in our purple and yellow bin at school! The bin will accept books, DVDs, used clothing in any condition, linens and clothing accessories. Good condition items are repurposed and resold, lesser condition items are turned into industrial rags and filling material. Please no encyclopedias or college text books. Lets earn money for our school and keep these items out of landfills!

Bring in your used ink jets, laser toner cartridges, and used cell  phones ( in a zippered bag) and the Ryan will recycle them. Proceeds will fund art and enrichment programming at our school! Save the earth and help  the school!

It's called Amazon Smile and will donate 0.5% of the purchase price of eligible products to our PAC. If you shop on Amazon.com, go tosmile.amazon.com to designate the "John Ryan School Pac" as your school. Another great way to earn FREE money for our school and kids!

AROUND THE TOWN
TEWKSBURY EDUCATION FOUNDATION STAFF RECOGNITION PROGRAM
Are you looking for a gift to honor a wonder Ryan School teacher, administrator or staff member?  The Tewksbury Education Foundation invites you to honor a special Tewksbury Public School educator/staff member through its Recognition Program.  This program is a meaningful way for parents and students to show their appreciation.  Through this program, you may recognize someone by making a tax-deductible donation to the TEF in his/her name.  We will send each honoree a personalized certificate which acknowledges your gift to the TEF in their name. The certificate will state your name and personal message (if you choose), but it will not disclose the amount of your gift.  Those who are recognized will be included on TEF’s website list of honorees.  Full details are in the attached flier.

This email is being sent to you from the the Ryan School PAC.  Your email will only be used for this purpose.

If you know anyone who would like to be added, please forward this email to them and tell the them to email us with a request to be added.

If you would like to be removed from this email please let us know.

Thanks, Carolyn Gaglione- Chair Ryan School PAC
