The Holiday Shop is almost here! Each class will have a time slot during the week of Dec 4th-8th for students to shop. We will be sending home the budgeting envelopes on Friday, December 1st. Please fill out these with your student so they have a list of who to buy for and send these back to school on December 4th so your student will be prepared to shop. You can purchase gift certificates for their use electronically and send money through the following website. Here is the link to set up the electronic payment:

FBE Veteran wall. Thank you FBE family for helping us honor our Veterans.
Thank you to all who have and are currently serving to keep us safe.
Congratulations to Ja'Liyah Frasier on getting second place in her age group at the Coastal Carolina Fair's Youth Art Show!
Help us Celebrate our Veterans. Your child will be coming home with a Veteran sheet. If you have someone in your family that is or has served in the armed forces, please complete the sheet and return it to your child's teacher. We will be hanging these in our hallway at school. Please make sure you put your child's name and teacher on the back of the sheet. We will try to return them when we are done displaying them.
Good Afternoon Foxbank Families!
Don't forget about the Boykin PTO Spaghetti Dinner and Silent Auction. All funds raised tonight go toward funding classroom/celebration grants. What are classroom/celebration grants? That's a great question! These grants are applied for by teachers to the PTO and can be used for field trips, classroom-enhancing experiences, supplies needed for the classroom, one time celebration etc. These are all things teachers shouldn't need to pay for themselves!
You can still buy tickets! Go to https://foxbankboykins.ptboard.com/formvw?store=4238&form=12.
Tickets for the dinner and auction will be available at the door. There is no cost for entry to the auction only! Winners of items from the silent auction can pay with cash, check, or card!
Let's all show FBE some love and support this amazing program!
Thank you,
PTO Board
