MARCH MADNESS CALENDAR RAFFLE

The Ryan School PAC is excited to share our 3rd Annual Calendar Raffle fundraising opportunity with you. We are pleased to report that the profits from last year's raffle enable us to purchase HP Streams for the classrooms. Each child will be sent home with a packet with information and raffle tickets to sell for this fundraiser (they came home the end of last week). They are due on Monday, March 7th at which point we will pick the first 7 winners. We will pick a winning ticket each day for the month of March and the winners will receive a call as to how much money they have won.  Look out for St. Paddy's Day (big winnings!)  If you have questions about the raffle, please email Carolyn Gaglione at ryanschoolpac@gmail.com. Thank you in advance!!

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!

The Ryan School participates in an ink recycling  program. 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!
