Art to Remember
Hi families and friends,
Our school is participating in a creative fundraiser with Art to Remember that allows you to purchase keepsake products customized with your child's art. There are over 60 products and many are less than $15. These make great gifts and a percentage of every purchase goes right back to our school. Click on the link below and type in your child's name to search for your child's artwork. Then, have fun shopping! There was an individualized order packet sent home with your child on Tuesday, November 9. Artwork from past years is also on this which is fun to look at and/or order. Orders are all online and due by November 19, 2021.
THIS LINK WILL GET YOU TO THE WEBSITE. YOU CAN LOOK UP YOUR CHILD'S ART FROM THERE. https://arttoremember.com/school/qs44me
