Here's the corrected version. I'm sorry
- my computer blew up!

Sending Out An
APB!
Almost 25% of the Coupon Books
that we sent home in backpacks have not been returned and have not
been purchased.
Most of them are probably in the
black hole of student's desks, backpacks or bedrooms. Please check
for these and return them, if you do not wish to purchase them.
Thanks!

If
Santa was nice this year . . .
Maybe he brought you some new computer equipment!
If he did, consider recycling your old equipment by donating it to Summit Academy! You might just
reap a nice tax write-off!
Some of the things we could use:
- Computers that are 4.5 years old or newer (Pentium 4
processor or newer, or MAC OSX or newer)
- FLAT PANEL LCD computer monitors
- Keyboards and/or optical mice
We'd love to have businesses donate batches of computers
that are coming off of lease or being replaced. We are a
not-for-profit authorized Microsoft Office Refurbisher,
and as such, can take donated PC's, erase
the hard drives, and install Windows XP and Microsoft Office at
minimal cost to the school.
For more information, and to confirm that the equipment
can be put to good use, contact our technology director Bob Deitel,
at 619-3192.

 Walk In My Shoes
Walk in your child's shoes - for one hour.
A 'Walk In My Shoes' is a fun and moving presentation designed to help parents,
family members and our community to better understand the
challenges facing children with learning differences.
This is a free presentation, not a
fundraiser. Bring your family, friends, pastor,
dentist - whoever might be interested
in our mission! We will do learning disability
simulations, hear what other parents have to say about Summit Academy, and have a brief
tour of the school.

The Kindergartners were learning the meaning of the word
'unique', and what makes each person unique.
The teacher said, "For example, what makes me
unique?"
One student replied, "Well, you're old and you're
hair is . . . ummmmmm different."
