Sheckler Elementary School's annual Cherrydale Farms Fundraiser will kick off Sept. 5 and end Sept. 26.

Your participation will help earn funds to be used for student activities and events throughout the school year.

By selling 10 items (15 if selling for two students at Sheckler) the student will be invited to attend the Mega Event held at a later time, a fun event with a deejay, inflatables and dancing games.

There are also many more premium prizes they can earn based on the number of items they sell.

Payment for purchases will need to be sent in with orders by Sept. 26 to your child's teacher.

Pickup of orders and dates for events will be at a later time, so watch for updates.

Happy selling!

Sheckler's Meet The Teacher Night will take place Thursday, Sept. 11.

Doors will open 5:45 p.m. and the night will conclude 8 p.m.

This is a wonderful opportunity to visit and become familiar with your child's classroom and learn the room rules, procedures for the year, the curriculum as well as other information you may need.

There are two sessions so parents who have more than one student at Sheckler may have a chance to visit each classroom.

The first session will be 6-6:40 p.m. for first through fourth grades and morning kindergarten classes. Then, 6:50-7:30 p.m., sessions for first through fourth grades and afternnoon kindergarten will meet.

All children in attendance must be supervised. During the evening the book fair will be going on in the cafeteria, giving you the chance to shop together and make purchases.

There will be information tables set up for you to visit so you can learn about and become familiar with some great organizations you or your child may want to get involved with and to answer questions you may have regarding Title I, speech, Girl Scouts, Boy Scouts, CAST and so much more.

Sheckler's Home and School will have information on their membership drive as well as some information on some great ways you can help support the school such as through the Giant Bonus Card Rewards Program. After signing up your bonus card for Sheckler, each time you shop at Giant and use your card, Sheckler will receive a donation from Giant for the school.

There will also be tables set up outside your child's classroom to sign up for a date for upcoming parent-teacher conferences, to be held in November.

Be sure to come out and take part.
