Dear Parents and Friends:
We are beginning our See’s Candies annual fundraising sale.  We chose See’s because of its fine reputation for quality. Also, everyone will LOVE to get a box or two of See’s candies for Winter Holidays!!!
Since all of the students will benefit from our fundraiser, we would greatly appreciate everyone’s cooperation.

Please ask everyone you know (friends, relatives, neighbors and co-workers) to place their order.
Below you will find Presale Form from See’s Candies in .pdf format. 

You can either print out this form, or just e-mail it to your co-workers, friends and family.

When people place orders, they need to give you a check payable to RAIS in the amount of their order.
Remember, everyone is paying exactly same amount of money as they would have paid in an actual See’s Candies store!
But ……if you or your friends order through this fundraiser program, NOBODY PAYS SALES TAX!!!

And….. there are no processing fees or shipping fees too!

Please stop by our display at the school entrance hall to review candy box sizes.

You will also receive a color flyer with an order form on the back (exactly what is attached to this e-mail) and an envelope for your convenience.

      MAGICIAN PERFORMER
 
It has become a good tradition to invite a professional performer for our last day of school. This year we are going to meet DAN CHAN THE MAGIC MAN with his ultimate variety show.
You can check out his website here: http://www.danchanmagic.com/index.html
Video on YouTube here: http://www.youtube.com/danielgchan
 
Dan Chan’s website claims: “Dan Chan masters more than most, promises more than expected, and delivers more than hoped. He's been called "an intense, three-ring circus rolled into one man" and for good reason. Dan Chan the Magic Man merges several specialties from the world of variety arts into a singular experience. From pure and technical sleight-of-hand to authentic pick pocketing; from world-class juggling to circus stunts; from escapes to dog tricks; acrobatics to quick-change costumes. Dan Chan creates excitement wherever he performs.”

Our School will be celebrating Pushkin's Week ("Пушкинская Неделя") 

When: June 1 - June 7 2010. 
Where: School

Люблю я Пушкина творенья,
И это вовсе не секрет.
Его поэм, стихотворений

Прекрасней не было и нет!
С мальства его читаем сказки,
В них жар души, природы краски.
Добро цветёт в них, злоба чахнет.
В них русский дух, в них Русью пахнет!
За Пушкина Руси спасибо
От имени всего народа!
Ведь мы стихи его читаем
Как он писал – без перевода.

"Dear Parents! There are no doubts that the Talent Show 2010 was a blast!  
I think that the name we’ve chosen for that event – Talent Show – is exactly what it was: children, teachers and parents had shown off their unique talents and everyone truly enjoyed it!

We have received a very positive feed back from parents and guests who had been at the show. The description words we mostly heard were “amazing!”, “wonderful!”, “hard to believe it’s performed by elementary school age kids”, “very well arranged and staged”.
Thank you for your appreciation! 

THANK YOU ALL FOR MAKING THE SHOW SUCH AN AWESOME EVENT!"

Sincerely,
 
Eleonora Nayberg
Principal
