Deer for a Dear

We created our Deer for a Dear this week. Students purchased them for $1 each. The money raised will go to the NJASC state charity, the Family Reach Foundation. The Family Reach Foundation was created to provide financial relief and heartfelt support to families fighting pediatric cancers and other life threatening diseases.

If you are still interested in purchasing a Deer for a Dear, please let Mrs. Kantz or Mrs. Dowd know by Monday, December 21st. Deer will be distributed on Wedesday, December 23rd.

Care in a Can

The Oxford Student Council is assisting the Oxford Emergency Squad and Fire Department in collecting cans for the needy.

The holidays are a particularly stressful time of year for many people in need.

We would like to come together as a community and help our needy with donations of non-perishable food items.

All donations are due in homerooms by December 10, 2009.

Thank you for all your help!
