 MONEY JAR
Look for the change jar located in the main foyer
A BIG thank you to all those who donated to the money jar to date. The Christmas Concert donations certainly raised the figures. We are pleased to report the total coins rolled and deposited over the Holidays was $475.00. That would be the equivalent of 47,500 pennies! Let's keep filling the jar!  
 
FEB 14th - The children, families and staff of SSES continue to fill the Cranberry bear's "money jar" bringing us $67.00 closer to building our school and community playground. Every penny counts!
 
MAY 9th - Cranberry Bear is just one step away from reaching the top of the slide! Once again, we have counted the endless pennies to the tune of $144.50. WOW! We have some pretty enthusiastic children helping Cranberry along. Way to go!
 
GRAND TOTAL $686.50
