Support a Child with a Winter Pack

With the support of the PTO and GJHP, we are pleased to continue our partnership in support of Cradles to Crayons. Join us to share resources with children in the Chicago area. A few packs remain to sponsor a child at each school All details are included on the sheets at the school entrances. All packs may be returned to any school by December 18th.  We are well along to reach our goal of 150 packs to celebrate Glencoe’s sesquicentennial. 

We thank you in advance for supporting the Cradles to Crayons organization. We look forward to our students experiencing the true spirit of this organization as our 3rd, 4th, and 7th graders will volunteer in the Cradles to Crayons Giving Factory in the winter months.

Thank you,
The Glencoe Administrative Team

Food For Funds

Food For Funds is a fundraiser in which receipts from Grand Foods can be turned in for 3% back which will then be donated to charity. The 8th Grade Executive Cabinet will be collecting receipts in order to raise funds. Therefore, we are asking parents and guardians for help to achieve our goal. Any Grand Foods receipts from 2018 can be turned in to any District 35 school before December 18th. All 2019 receipts can be handed in by June 1, 2019. Any value would be appreciated and we thank you for your support.

The 8th Grade Executive Cabinet is also collecting box-tops and pop-tabs. These can also be turned in to any District 35 school at anytime throughout the year.

Thanks again for your support,
8th Grade Executive Cabinet
