Week of October 3rd
This week is Carroll Education Foundation “Change Week”
Make a change in a student’s life by giving change to CEF- ALL change collected during this week will go back to OUES!  CEF will match funds raised up to $1,000!  The class that collects the most change by the end of the week will receive a pizza party. Let’s go First Grade!!!
