100th Day of School Food Drive

Celebrating the 100th Day of School is always a fun time in kindergarten. We will work on many activities centered around the number 100 on that day. As long as there aren’t any snow days, the 100th Day of School for Kindergarten will be Monday, February 8th. This year, the kindergarten classes would like to try and collect 100 food donations to donate to Kylee’s Kare Kits for Kidz. Kylee is a student at Sky View Middle School who started a program to help feed students in need over the weekend who may not have food otherwise. Each Friday a “Kare Kit” is given to students with a weekend’s supply of food. If you would like to learn more about Kylee’s Kare Kits for Kidz you can visit http://www.kyleeskarekitsforkidz.org/. The following is a listing of items that can be donated for the “kare kits” that will be provided to children: • 100% juice boxes • Macaroni & Cheese (boxes as well as Easy Mac) • Cans of Chicken Noodle Soup • Individual boxes of Cereal • Peanut butter Crackers • Cans of Chef Boyardee Beef Ravioli • Cans of Chef Boyardee Spaghetti & Meatballs • Granola Bars • Fruit Cups • Applesauce Cups • Pudding Cups • Yogurt Raisins Each Kindergarten class will be tallying and keeping track of their classroom’s donations each day and then as a grade-level the donations will be added together. Our hope is to collect 100 donations of food to celebrate 100 Days of School. If you are able to send in a donation, please do so before Monday, February 8th. Thank You for your support with this project. As always, please contact your child’s classroom teacher with any questions. The Kindergarten Team
