November/December - Crocodile Cheer Holiday Program
 
In mid-November, information will come home in your child's Friday Folder about our annual holiday program.  Crocodile Cheer provides gift bags for students in the community who are in need. The gift bags are filled with holiday surprises and assorted school supplies.  You can participate this season by volunteering to sponsor a child and provide a gift bag for them. 
 
We will also need volunteers in December for a "wrapping party"!  More information about this, including the date, will be posted here soon.
