The Shawnee Heights Public Schools Foundation is offering their annual Major Saver Cards! Our schools will move to Full-Remote learning Monday, November 23, 2020, so this campaign will be ran remotely as well. Cards will be sold by students in an online format and mailed to the purchaser. Major Saver card purchases help benefit all of our schools who participate. Since 2013, the Shawnee Heights Public Schools Foundation has helped raise nearly $171,000 with the Major Saver Program. Looking to purchase a card? Reach out to a Shawnee Heights student to ask for their personal online link or visit www.majorsaver.com to purchase a card and select a Shawnee Heights student.

“Wacky Wednesday”....silly socks, mismatched clothing, and crazy hair. This will be just another day for most of the kids whose hair hasn’t seen a brush in 12 days. Don’t forget to post pics on the TS PTO Facebook page. USD 450 served 200 lunches yesterday that included Uncrustables, Sun Chips, apple, and chocolate milk. These lunches are for all kids, so don’t be shy!

I will be at TUMC at 3rd and Tecumseh Road helping with lunches this week. I hope to be able to see a lot of families pull through our grab and go express lane. Check the pic for other sites, and remember that parents can pick up lunches without their kids being with them. Happy St. Patty’s Day!
