This week at Charlotte Lab School

 
I am happy to be back from my trip to Germany, where I had the opportunity to meet with educators, architects, and designers from around the country and to get a deeper understanding of the thought, design, and production of our VS furniture.  I am proud that we have partnered with such an innovative and thoughtful company.  I look forward to sharing more in an upcoming enews.

GoPlaySave coupon book fundraiser

 
Picture
Lab Middle School students are selling GoPlaySave coupon books (formerly Citipass) over the next few weeks to raise money for an end of year trip (details to be determined). Coupon books and subscriptions to the mobile site (paperless coupons!) are available for purchase for $30 each and $15 of your purchase goes directly to the middle school. Included are coupons to hundreds of local restaurants, destinations, and retail locations. Be sure to get yours while they last! See a middle school student or use this link to purchase yours. ​

Book fair was a huge success!

 
Another successful book fair is in the ... books! (Ha ha!) We sold more than $10,000 in books and earned thousands of dollars for new books for the school. With the help of our Book Buck program, all kids had the opportunity to shop for books, regardless of their ability to pay. Many generous Lab parents contributed to the Book Buck program and helped us reach our goal of raising $1,000 to help kids in need.
​
This is the third year that Mandy French has organized the Book Fair, and we are so thankful for her leadership! She was supported by many new and returning volunteers, including Rebecca Hinson, Kelly Schwartz, Natalie Osman, Siddhi Shah, Liz Flinn, Marty Pizzo, David Lund, Cynthia Wood, Michele Davis, Kim Aprill, Kiyoko Abrams, Megan Ryan, Whitney Leary, Kesha Dawson, Nola McClure, Brandi Duncan, Sue Hawes, Keri Clavin, Nicole Bowen, Jennifer Holland, Reka Juhasz-Atwood, Beth Pesakoff, Keri Schacht, Deb FIllman, Lies Narrow, Kia Green, Syreeta Smith, Becka Eppley, Johanna Kalons, and Jaime Rentch.
