DrumBeat: Drummond LSC and PTO News & Views

Last year the Drummond PTO and Friends of Drummond joined forces to launch The Wish List – a community-wide effort to collect donations of various equipment and supplies desired by Drummond faculty but currently beyond their budgets.  While many contributions came in (thank you everyone who donated!), many, many more items remain on the Wish List.  We are seeking everything from sponges to microwaves, cameras to couches. The majority of the items can be purchased new through Amazon.com. Click here to view the Drummond School Wish List at Amazon.com.Those items that cannot be purchased through Amazon are listed in the attached Special store wishlist flier (with suggestions as to where to buy them). If you are a Drummond parent and want to know what your child’s teacher would like, please see our Classroom wishlist breakdown. 

Wicker baskets gathering dust in your basement? Time for an early spring cleaning? Now’s your chance to put your gently used cast-offs to good use in Drummond’s classrooms. Any donation, large or small, used or new would be warmly welcomed by our teachers, as are donations from suppliers other than Amazon or cash or gift card donations.

*** PLEASE NOTIFY US OF ANY PURCHASES NOT MADE THROUGH THE AMAZON REGISTRY!!! *** This will help us to avoid duplication. All items may be delivered directly to the School addressed to:

Wish List Project
Drummond School
1845 West Cortland
Chicago, IL 60622

Please contact regarding any such purchases. Thank you in advance for your support for this wonderful project,

Monica Lasky, President, Friends of Drummond,

 P.S. Looking for ways to make your contribution go even further?  It’s easy: Buy Amazon gift cards through Drummond Dollars, and then use those gift cards to shop on line at the Drummond Wish List gift registry at Amazon.  Also, be sure to use the above links to access the registry rather than going there directly; by linking to Amazon through this website, you qualify Drummond to receive a rebate for a certain percentage of your purchase.  Wow, now that’s leveraging your money!
