We need your help!
John L. Hensey's Wildcat Cares store wants to be able to provide a costume to students who don't have one. Starting today until October 13, we are seeking new or gently used, clean costumes that are school appropriate for ECE-3rd grade students. You can drop them off at John L. Hensey. Please see the flyer attached if you have any questions.
Good morning Wildcats - just a reminder that the online store to order a t-shirt in support of our sweet Wildcat Lilly as she battles osteosarcoma is going to be closing soon. Lilly's family is using the t-shirts as an opportunity to raise funds for Lilly's family as they face this difficult journey ahead. Teamworks has worked with District 50 to create an online link that can select pickup from Beverly Manor as an option, with funds still going directly to the family. The online store closes TOMORROW, so click on the link below, and order yours today to help support Lilly and her family.

Good evening Wildcat Family - we just wanted to let everyone know that District 50 PTC will be holding a donation fundraiser. All donations go to help support classroom and student needs, help facilitate field trips for enriching experiences for our students, and show our continued appreciation to staff, teachers, and our wonderful community! This fundraiser will take place from Monday, October 2nd - Friday, November 3rd. Students can earn a variety of prizes for donations received including a "Wildcat Day of Fun" in the spring, and even the principals have offered a special prize level for total donations for the district. Keep an eye out for information to come home. Thank you in advance for your support Wildcats!
Just a reminder that the T-shirt fundraiser for Lilly one of our current Wildcat students, is still going. Teamworks was gracious enough to create a link for our students, families and staff to be able to pick up at Beverly Manor. If you would like to order your shirt to lend help to Lilly and her family as they face this struggle, please click the link below. Thank you to our Wildcat family for all your support!
