Pink Out will be Monday, November 4th and this year we are raising money for one of our own GCSSD employees, Toni Patton, who is currently undergoing treatments for breast cancer. We will be selling t-shirts, sweatshirts, beads, bracelets, sunglasses, socks, leis, and poms with ALL proceeds going directly to Toni Patton and family. Shirt order forms will be sent home today and will be due this Friday, October 25. The other items will be sold at school through Monday, November 4th. Beads will be sold for $1, bracelets for $2, sunglasses for $5, socks for $5, leis for $3, and poms for $2. Again, all of the proceeds will be donated to Toni Patton. The grade level to raise the most money will get to choose a teacher to kiss a pig at the Pink Out game!
