Many of the supplemental programs will start later than expected due to new CPS requirements for afterschool vendors. We have worked through many of these issues and will start French Language, French Drama and Yoga next week. Please be on the lookout for those registration forms and an informational table at Drummond Cooks!. The afterschool committee will offer additional programs in the 2nd and 3rd quarters of the school year.
The afterschool committee has many supplemental activities (both tuition-based and free activities) planned for this year and wish to get parent feedback Please click on this link http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/DRPXSRL and provide your feedback regarding after school programs at Drummond. Aug 30th is the last day to provide feedback.
We look forward to providing exceptional afterschool activities. Please feel free to contact Misty Drake @ or Margaritha Rodriguez @
Have you got a pile of school clothes your kids have outgrown? Look for the big, brown box marked SWAP DROP on the East (swing side) of the school and drop ‘em in. It’s easy!
Next Monday through Wednesday we will be running the Uniform Swap. Everyone should have a backpack stuffer with the full scoop, but here are the hours and details again:
Location: Basement lunch room–enter at the back SW corner of the school, off the playground side.
$$: If you donated, pick clothes free–even trade–swap up to the number you donated.
**Disclaimer: Donated clothes are a donation. We usually have loads of early childhood clothes and can’t promise you will find a larger size, for your bigger kids.
Additional clothes (or if you had nothing to trade in) are a suggested donation of $2.00 each, to help Drummond PTO put on fun events like Family Reading Night and The End of the Year Picnic.
Swap Hours:
Monday–2:45-3:15 right after school (first dibs for families that have donated clothes ONLY) *donations are still accepted during swap hours
Monday–1/2 hour before the EL1 Open House 5pm-5:30. Parents of younger and older kids are welcome to shop during this evening slot, too, even if you are not coming to attend the open house. Open to all.
Tuesday–2:45-3:15 (everyone)
Wednesday–2:45-3:15 Any remaining clothes will be FREE and out on the swing side of the playground. Anything remaining after 3:15 will be donated. See me if you have a charity you’d like to deliver to & want to take any remaining bags.
****Clothes still accepted throughout the swap, but earlier is better so volunteers have a chance to organize everything by sizes.
Thank you,
Bonnie Kenaz-Mara
