📚 CFT Wildcats: we need YOU at the Book Fair! 📚

Have you ever wanted to feel like a librarian, but instead of checking books out, you get to sell them to kids? 😄

Here’s your chance! We are desperately in need of volunteers this Tuesday (10/20) at 11:15am -1:15pm for lunch recess coverage.

✨ What you’ll do: Help students find their next favorite book, ring up purchases, and share in the excitement of a kid holding a brand-new book.

⏰ When: Tuesday, 10/20, at 11:15am for the lunch recess coverage
📍 Where: The CFT Book Fair
👕 Bonus: No experience needed, just a smile and a love of reading!

Even one shift makes a big difference. Every book sold helps put more books in the hands of our kids and supports our school.

🐾 HEY WILDCATS! 🐾

THANK YOU, Wildcats! Together we’ve raised almost $15,000 for our school, and we’re so close to our $20,000 goal! 🎉

🏃 Jog-a-thon is this Friday, October 16th! There’s still time to bring in those envelopes from home and pledge online.

💚 $20,000 = SLIME ASSEMBLY! 💚

The Slime Assembly is one of our kids’ favorite assemblies of the year, and we’d LOVE to make it happen! Reaching our goal also helps fund Art Lit, Staff Appreciations, Field Trips, and so much more.

☕🍰 Silent Auction Spotlight: Ava Roasteria

This one's a good one, a pound of coffee AND a $75 gift card for a cake. Not just any cake either, we're talking an amazing cake.
