Wednesday Updates

 

Dear Parents,

Due to our overnight field experience, we will not have a full weekly letter this week. We just have a few announcements to share:

1. SHOUT OUT TO OUR AWESOME ASTROCAMP CHAPERONES! Thank you to all of our wonderful chaperones for taking time out of your busy schedules to join us on our field experience! A great time was had by all! We are most appreciative of your support. Without you, our field experiences wouldn’t be possible.
2. SPRING FLING DANCE: The dance is this Friday, March 22nd at
   Quail Hollow Tennis & Swim clubhouse 800 Orleans Place, Raleigh 27609! The entry fee is $5. Volunteers and snack items are needed. We are also collecting items for Cause for Paws. Students who bring in items for Cause for Paws may enter to win raffle prizes. Click here to sign up to chaperone or send in snacks or to view the Cause for Paws donation list. 
3. MAD CITY MONEY VOLUNTEERS NEEDED 4/5/19: Mad City Money is coming to Exploris Middle School on Friday, April 5, 2019. Mad City is a real-world budgeting simulation offered as a real-world hands-on simulation. Mad City Money gives students a taste of the real world complete with occupation, salary, spouse, student loan debt, and medical insurance payments. Volunteers are needed to make this event happen! Volunteers should be here at 9 am for a 1-hour training session. The event will end around 1:00 pm. Sign up here if you’re able to volunteer!
4. DONATIONS NEEDED: We have an 8th grade service learning group that has taken on a number of projects to end racism. For the last 3 months they have wanted to help immigrants, and through the help of Beth Meyer Synagogue and Lutheran Services Carolinas they were just assigned the task of creating a home for a SYRIAN REFUGEE FAMILY that is arriving next week. The family fled Syria in 2012 when the boys were just 12 and 15 years. After seven years in a refugee camp in Jordan, the boys and their 63 year old mother have been given asylum to the U.S. and arrive soon! The family is Muslim, and after this past Friday’s horrific event in New Zealand this project has taken on greater urgency – for our students to do right by this family.

   A few items are still needed:

   • A gently used couch.
   • A gently used armchair
   • (2) Frames for queen size mattresses. We have mattresses.
   • Dresser
   • Vacuum
   • Standing and table lamps.
   • Many small household items that have been posted on the hall bulletin board in the blue space outside of the 8th grade.
   • PIck-up trucks for Monday, March 25th MOVE IN after-school.
   • Monetary gifts can also be accepted through the Go Fund Me the students set up. If you can help by contributing or driving please contact 8th grader Dakoda Fisher. dafisher@exploris.org  (More to come as we get closer to the move in date.)
