Students will bring home a consent form on Monday.  Please return a check, cash or money order with the consent form.  We will accept partial payments due to extenuating circumstances.  Please contact Ms. Hardon or Ms. Horton to arrange.  However, the more we have the more we can do. 

We will also need volunteers for several events.  Please indicate on your consent/intent forms where you would like to lend a hand.
