Attention 5th Grade Parents (and anyone else who wants to help!)
Our 5th graders work very hard each day to earn "Buckeye Points" through things like good behavior, turning in homework, and outstanding citizenship. Students who earn 90% of the possible Buckeye Points each semester are rewarded with a "Buckeye Bash", a celebration of their achievement.  This is a highly effective program, and is very meaningful for our 5th graders.
 
The 2nd quarter Buckeye Bash is a trip to Star Lanes (bowling).  The cost is about $20/child - a total of $2800 for the entire 5th grade.  It is very important that we collect the funds required to allow our students to successfully attain the reward they are working so hard for.  
 
We are asking that all 5th grade parents who are able contribute to the Buckeye Bash.  Minimum suggested donation is $20.  However, larger donations are accepted since we know there will be many students whose families cannot afford the cost.  We want to reward all students for their hard work!
 
To make a personal donation, follow the steps below.  In addition to personal donations, we are also appreciative for any businesses who want to sponsor this activity.  Anyone who wishes to make a donation via cash or check may send the money to school by Friday.  Checks can be made out to the Fouse PTO.
 
To make an online donation:
  • Go to http://www.westervilleeducationfoundation.com/p/29/gap-initiative-home-page
  • Click on “Fund A Project” (left side)
  • Type in “Fouse Elementary” under Project Proposals
  • Choose one of the two proposals.  Once both proposals are fully funded we will be able to make the reservation at Star Lanes.
 
Thank you for helping our 5th graders reach this goal!
 
 
Mitten Tree and Food Drive through December 18
Fouse students are encouraged to bring new gloves and scarves, as well as non-perishable food items, to school for the Mitten Tree.  All items will be donated to Westerville Caring and Sharing, a program that supports our neighbors throughout the year.
 
 
Winter Class Parties, December 18
All Winter Class Parties will be held at 2:30 on December 18.  Please contact your room parent if you are interested in providing an item for the party, or if you would like to volunteer.
 
 
Teacher of the Month Program
In partnership with ThisWeek Community News, and through the support of Education First Credit Union, the WEF is pleased to provide community members with an opportunity to recognize outstanding Westerville City School District teachers through its new Teacher of the Month program.
 
Teachers chosen to receive this honor will be featured in a full-page advertisement in the ThisWeek Westerville News & Public Opinion. Following a thorough and thoughtful review of nominees, three recipients -- one from the elementary, middle and high school levels -- will be selected each month.
 
Nominations may be submitted through the WEF website at www.westervilleeducationfoundation.com.
