Volunteers will be entered in a daily drawing for a $5 credit to use at the PSI Scholastic Book Fair!
Again this year, we will be participating in "One for Books”, a program in which every dollar donated will go not only to our programs, but will be matched by Scholastic Books ($1 = one book!) to bring books to several charitable organizations (including Kids in Distressed Situation, Inc. The Center for Family Literacy, and the Marine Toys for Tots Foundation).
Spring Carnival & Silent Auction
The PSI Spring Carnival and Silent Auction is one of the school's biggest fundraisers. All proceeds from this annual event go to support the PSI Amity Intern Program. This year's carnival will be held on Saturday, March 14th, from 4:00 - 8:00pm. The online silent auction will begin on Monday, March 8th and end at midnight Saturday, March 14th.
General Mills Boxtops, Campbell’s UPC/Barcode labels and Kemps lids
Contact: Virgina Jensen
Once again this year we are challenging you to save General Mills Boxtops, Campbell’s UPC/Barcode labels and Kemps lids and earn money and supplies for PSI. Boxtops, UPC codes and lids will be collected three times during the school year. Classes will compete to collect the most items and the top classes for each round will earn a reward for their efforts. Last years’ rewards included a bowling party at Park Tavern, a popsicle party and “kids’ choice days” with Senor Watkins in PE class. Click here to learn more.
Turn in dates: November 9-13, 2009 February 22-26, 2010 May 10-14, 2010

The Target Red Card
We've discovered a terrific way to raise funds for our school. It's super-easy, and all you have to do is use your Target® Visa® or Target® Card. Just visit target.com/tcoe, or call
1-800-316-6142 to designate our school.
Target will track purchases made by participating REDcard holders, then send a no-strings-attached donation check directly to the school principal. Checks are distributed once a year.
