Yvelise Hixson Wins A $150<br />
Spree At Times Supermarkets<br />
On Wednesday, Yvelise<br />
Hixson wanted to get<br />
some fruit, so she took a<br />
trip to Times Supermarkets<br />
in Kaimuki. As she stood<br />
outside the store at 4:30<br />
p.m., MidWeek’s representative<br />
approached Yvelise<br />
with a simple question.<br />
She answered correctly<br />
and instantly won a $150<br />
Times Supermarkets shopping<br />
spree.<br />

PTSF NEWS<br />
Welcome to the PTSF’s 1st newsletter for the 2016-2017 school year.<br />
Special thanks to the parents who have attended the last 3 meetings.<br />
If you have not had an opportunity to attend, we would like to invite<br />
you to come. Let’s join together to make a difference. We meet the<br />
1st Tuesday of every month from 6:30-7:30pm in the 6th grade<br />
classroom.<br />
During Christmas Break our school will undergo some exciting<br />
improvements. When school resumes in January, the playground<br />
will be a bit more fun for the students. There will be new playground<br />
equipment installed. Mrs. Pauley is also hoping to have a new<br />
overhead projector, iPad and accessories for our 1st and 2nd grade<br />
classrooms installed.<br />

This year we are trying to help parents stay connected. Each<br />
classroom now has a parent representative. If you’d like to help<br />
please contact Traci Mckinney or Mrs. Pauley. Our goal is to have<br />
at least 2 representatives per classroom.<br />
We also invite families to share their different talents. We are<br />
looking for grant writers and any person or business that can<br />
donate their time and trade skills to help improve our school.<br />

This holiday season the students packed and donated 91 shoeboxes full of little Christmas gifts<br />
and sent them overseas to be distributed worldwide via Operation Christmas Child-a project<br />
of Samaritan Purse, to children around the world<br />
FUNDRAISING<br />
Our current fundraising target this year is $20,000. With God willing we will do so much more. Our main<br />
goal this year is to make the play area even better for our children. Some repairs are needed in this area as<br />
well as a fun new piece of play equipment.<br />
Thank you to all the parents and families who helped make this year’s 1st round of MOLOKAI SWEETBREAD<br />
and DINNER ROLLS Fundraiser such a huge success. We are hoping the 2nd round will be just as good or<br />
better. Our 1st Habilitat (Christmas Tree) Fundraiser was a huge success as well… A big THANK YOU again.<br />
Between the both we profited close to $2,000. If anyone could please share their pictures of trees, wreaths<br />
or door chimes you bought would be greatly appreciated. We would like to do this fundraiser next year and<br />
having actual photos of the products would help.<br />
Our next fundraiser starts off in January, we are offering our Lanakila Discount Cards in December as a presale<br />
before Christmas vacation. If you need an idea for a Christmas Gift or Stocking Stuffer, this is totally up<br />
your alley. Many discounts only $20 a card and they don’t expire till Feb 2018.<br />
EVERYONE LOVES PIZZA RIGHT???<br />
Please don’t forget about our Papa John Pizza nights. Another awesome fundraiser happening. If you order<br />
from Papa John’s on a LBES night please save your little ticket from your box or reciept bring it to school the<br />
next school day and a percentage of your sales will go back to our school. What an awesome way to help<br />
our school and our hardworking parents by letting someone else take on the frustration of making dinner.<br />
BOX TOPS<br />
Keep a look out for those Box Tops they are on so many items you buy every day. Clip them send them to<br />
school with your child’s name. Each and every Box Top counts.<br />
NATIONAL SCHOOL CHOICE WEEK<br />
What is it you ask?… Well it’s very important to our school. Our students, faculty and hopefully many, if not<br />
most, of our parents will spend some time in front of the State Capitol building on January 24th, showing our<br />
school spirit and our support of National School Choice. If you’d like to learn more please visit their website<br />
