Just a reminder that next Sat Nov 14th we have two cord point opportunities.

One for Amazing Grace Food Pantry https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0A4CACA92CA2FBC34-65251445-amazing

And Wylie Christian Care Center: https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C0A4CACA92CA2FBC34-65606119-wylie

There was an adjustment for Nov 28th for Amazing Grace, as they will not be open on the 28th.

Awaiting confirmation from the Wylie Christian Care Center, to see if they will be open or not, because they are on that day as well.

Let's roll up our sleeves and help our community in need and get those cord points. Remember, you need 40 points by May of your students 8th grade year in order to get their cord.

So don't wait and sign up today.

I was just informed that Amazing Grace will be closed on Nov 28th, so I have removed that date on the list. Sorry if you were planning to join that day, but they will be enjoying time with their families as well.

Reminder: Wylie Animal Shelter Supply Drive!

Just a friendly reminder that we are collecting supplies to support our Wylie Animal Shelter!

You can earn CORD points for the donations you contribute on behalf of your students. But that's not all! Once we finish our collection, we will schedule a delivery day, and the shelter director has generously offered to give us a tour of the shelter for anyone interested in attending. You will earn additional CORD points for participating in the delivery and tour!

We would love for you to consider helping our furry friends by donating and spreading the word to family and friends who may also want to support this great cause.

Bonus Opportunity: If a friend or family member makes a donation, you can earn 1 additional CORD point per donation, up to a maximum of 3 extra CORD points for friends and family donations.

Every donation makes a difference, and we appreciate your support in helping the animals at our Wylie Animal Shelter!

Please don't hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. Thank you for your generosity and support!

Just a reminder parents, please share photos that you take of your student(s) during their volunteering. We love to share what our students are doing in our community and possibly for the year book as well. Send pictures to: [email protected]

So get to snapping those pictures and sharing them so we can see the amazing work our Burnett JH students are doing.

Starting Nov 1st, let's rally around to help our community, by helping the Wylie Animal shelter with well needed supplies. You get cord points and at the end of the month anyone that is interested, can get a cord point to tour the shelter. Date and time for the tour TBD, but keep your eyes out for information in the coming weeks, but in the meantime, please gather the items on the list in the flyer only, as they do need specific items. You can take them up to the front office or I can also make pick up's if needed, but just email me at: [email protected] or you can text me.

I wanted to share the cord check in form again, as it seems that the link was not working. Try this and hopefully it works for everyone. https://docs.google.com/forms/d/1CGkIbuGiM80dztbjXzIgZYNwT6XQzQRFzPu0KE0-Y84/edit

Also, any time that your students take part in a volunteer opportunity, please feel free to email any pictures taken so we can show the community what giving back to the community looks like. We love sharing what our students are doing and how they are making an impact in our own community.

Kind Regards,

🧼✨ RAIDERS, IT’S TIME TO CLEAN UP… FOR CORD POINTS! ✨🧼

All month long in October, Burnett students can help stock our Nurse’s Office & Athletics Department with much-needed hygiene products AND earn Cord Points while doing it! 💙🙌

We’re collecting new, unopened:
Boxes of tampons, pads & liners (24+)
💙 Deodorant
🧼 Body wipes
👝 Makeup or pencil bags for discreet carrying
⭐ CORD POINTS:
2 products = 1 point
4 products = 2 points
6 products = 3 points
Maximum: 3 Cord Points

Because apparently deodorant can do more than save the person sitting next to you in class… it can earn you Cord Points too. 😂👏

📍 Drop donations off at the Nurse’s Office or Athletics Department throughout October.

Grab a few items, earn some points, and help make sure fellow Raiders have access to the essentials they may need during the school day. 💕 Small donations can make a BIG difference!

Tag a Burnett student who needs to add a few more points to their total! 👀👇
