“PENNIES FOR PATIENTS” Solon PTO will be sponsoring a community service project at Solon to collect money for “Pennies for Patients”. All the money collected will go to the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society to help fight blood cancer in children and adults. Students are encouraged to bring in extra change from home so they can help make a change in someone else’s life. There will be special emphasis days to help make the drive fun for the students. The top fundraising class will earn a Domino’s pizza party! Last year, Solon was the 5th in the state of Indiana (per capita) when we raised $5,076.02. That was an average of $10.15/student. WOW! Let’s try to beat that total this year!

(Week of February 4th - February 8th)

Tuesday: Wear any team sport jersey so we can “Team up against Leukemia” Thursday: Dime Day - Bring as many dimes as you can! Friday: Hat Day - Bring a dollar and you can wear a hat all day!

(Week of February 11th - February 15th) Tuesday: Slipper Day - Bring a dollar and you can wear your slippers at school! Thursday: Quarter Day - Let’s finish strong and bring the largest coin! Friday: Extra Recess Day - Bring a dollar and get an extra 20 minute recess with Principal Merrill and helpers! LAST DAY ALL DONATIONS ARE DUE!
