Attention 6th Grade Families: we need your help!!

As you know, the 6th grade graduation will be held at Fort River at 1:30 on June 17th. Immediately following the graduation, there will be a reception in the cafeteria for students and their families/guests, with food provided by 6th grade families. In order to make sure we have a variety of food, we’ve created a list of requested items and ask for your help by signing up to bring one of these items (or feel free to add a new item if there is something else you’d like to bring!).

Go to http://fortriverreception.pleasebringit.com/public/fb1z+xH$tCw and sign up for something to bring.


Please sign up by Friday June 10th so we have time to fill in any gaps. Thank you!!
