Mr. Youngblood has agreed that each student who has purchased a Dunkin Daniel t-shirt can have a casual dress down day tomorrow, Tuesday, April 20. Teachers, we will send you a list of students who have purchased shirts this afternoon. Right now our numbers are still growing. Yay! Thank you so much for your support! Be watching for more information for P.A.W.S. for a Cause information very soon!!! Let's hit our goal and Dunk Daniel! #PAWSforacause #PAmissionsminded #beaneighbor Donna Johnson Special Events and Fundraising Coordinator Praise Academy

Dear Parents, Tomorrow is the last opportunity to order a Dunkin Daniel T-Shirt! This shirt is part of our PAWS for a Cause Fundraiser that we will be kicking off this week (be watching for more details). If we meet our goal for the Fundraiser, the students and staff will be Dunkin Daniel (Mr. Youngblood) in a Dunk Tank. The students are loving the t-shirts, so we are making them available for purchase. Every student that purchases a Dunkin Daniel t-shirt will be able to wear it every Tuesday between now and the end of the school year with their JEANS!!! The shirts are $15 each. The proceeds will go toward the PAWS for a Cause goal – we really want to Dunk Daniel! Attached is the order form for the T-Shirt. Shirts will be on sale now through next Monday, April 19. Again, the PAWS for a Cause fundraiser will be kicking off this week. It is our biggest fundraiser this year, with a short turnaround time, and the opportunity to help others in our own community while raising funds for our school. You will not want to miss out on the chance to be involved! Be watching for details soon…
