SRHS Update: Week of February 13

Dear Parents, Students, and Friends of Sanborn Regional High School. Here are your important announcements for the week.

1. The SRHS PTO will meet at 6pm this Wednesday in the library. All are welcome and invited to attend. Agenda items will include fund raising, specifically planning for a possible carnival on the campus in June.

2. Start your Saturday right with some pancakes, and help the music department at the same time! The Music Boosters are sponsoring a pancake breakfast this Saturday at the Applebee's in Epping from 8-10. While you are there, buy some raffle tickets for a chance to win some GREAT items. See the attached flyers for more information.

3. I have attached the scholarship newsletter for this week from our Guidance Department.

4. Guidance will begin working with our students in grades 9, 10, and 11 on the course selection process very soon. You can view the course catalog and Program of Studies online at the following links:

5. Thank you to all the students who "took the plunge" last Saturday into the ocean to raise money for the Special Olympics. Our Sanborn students raised $8569 of the $179,688 raised state-wide. GREAT JOB!

6. We plan to have available a coach bus to transport interested students to and from the prom this May. I am mentioning this now as students are already beginning to plan for this event. Tickets for the bus will cost $10 and will be available on a first come, first serve basis until all 55 seats are sold out. If we have enough interest beyond that, we will consider adding an additional bus. Tickets will go one sale when prom tickets go one sale.

7. Here is an update from the post-prom planning committee:

Hi Everyone,

I have started two fundraisers:

50/50 Raffle Tickets Sale: I sold tickets at the Music concert last Monday and then again last night at the Cheerleader Competition held @ Sanborn... the great news is in less than one week we have sold a little over $500. in tickets. (and a great big thank you to students Sara Drury, Melissa Peirce & Amanda Fortin for all their help selling tickets last night!).

Perella's Pizza, Rte 125 Haverhill, has graciously allowed us to have a fundraiser with them for After Prom Party. They are giving us 10% of any order every day from today until May 1st (must bring in attached flyer or Sanborn ID), in addition to the 10% they will give
us they will also give the customer ordering 10% off their own purchase.

6. The SRHS PTO is sponsoring a book drive and a book swap for Read Across America week March 12-15. They are looking for new or gently used books. Donations can be left in the main office for Mary Magnusson.

7. The Northeast Organic Farmers Association of New Hampshire (NOFA-NH) invites the community of Sanborn Regional High School to come to their Tenth Annual Winter Conference. To thank the Sanborn community for being the host school for 2012, NOFA-NH is offering a special discounted rate to members of the SRHS and Fremont, Newton, and Kingston, NH communities. Information about the conference and the full schedule can be found at www.nofanhwc.org. The early bird discount for the NOFA-NH Tenth Annual Winter Conference registration ends on 3 February, 2012. Combined with the special discount NOFA-NH is offering to the SRHS community in gratitude for being our gracious hosts, that's nearly 75% off the adult registration fee. Registration can be done on-line at www.regonline.com/nofanh2012WC. Students, family and faculty/staff of Sanborn should select the Sanborn RHS Community registration category. Then they will be asked for a discount code, which is SRHS13. Registration before 3 February will be $18.95 per person; after 3 February will be $33.95. All attendees are encouraged to participate in the Pot Luck Lunch, either by bringing a dish to share or buying a plate - $15 per adult, $7.50 per child under 13.
