“Gratitude is the most beautiful way to express all that’s in your heart with just two words … - Katrina Mayer One of the ways we express gratitude to our teachers is by putting together a Giving Tree. This has now become an EPIC tradition at Conway. Help us keep this tradition alive! Here is what you can do to help ... - Purchase $10 gift cards to area businesses (Starbucks, Jamba Juice, Panera, Target, Walmart etc) - Turn cards in to the front office, NOT the classroom teacher. - Drop off a $10 gift card by Thursday, May 11th to hang on the tree for our wonderful teachers to be treated to a special treat. Important reminders: Please only give $10 cards. It is very hard for us to use anything over $10 to be fair. This event and our Cookie Walk in December are two EPIC traditions we hope to continue but we need your support. Let’s show them how much we appreciate them. Thank you for your support! For more information, please contact Mrs. Maldonado at (760) 432-2435 EXT 12005 or email xmaldonado@eusd.org
