Climate Survey
Please click here to fill out the Survey
regarding the school climate at Charlemagne. The survey is very important to Site Council as we attempt to gauge the climate of the school and determine areas of focus for the coming year(s).
Each family should take one survey. If you have more than one child at Charlemagne and they have had very different experiences, please try to give a composite of their experiences in one survey.
Our goal is to have a 75% family response on the survey; that means we need each of you to respond. The deadline for responding to the survey is Monday, March 8th. Please let your voice be heard as we strive to improve our school.
Many thanks in advance,

Have you ever

school?
Have
you enjoyed working in the classroom or serving as a member of PTO, but
are
looking for another way to expand your experience and input at
Charlemagne?
We need
YOU as a parent representative on our
school’s Site Council!!
Site
Council is the governing body of our school. It is made up of parent
representatives (serving staggered two-year terms), teacher
representatives,
one classified representative, and the principal. Site Council meets
once a
month to discuss school curriculum, school structure, staff development
plans
and training options, job postings and qualifications, the school
calendar, and
any other concerns parents and teachers may have. Serving
as a member of Site council is an
excellent way to make a difference in our school and to be involved in
important issues and decisions. Two
parent representatives are needed!
If you
are interested in serving as a parent representative on Site Council
for the
school years 2000/10 and 2010/11, please submit the application to
the
office by Friday, March 15th, or email it to Keith Crudgington at

"Jug of Coins for Haiti"
Help the People of Haiti
with the basics: food, water and shelter
$ $ $
Every single penny helps !
Each and every penny (or any money) you donate can
make a difference
for the people of Haiti. Let’s help them recover from the devastating
earthquake that destroyed many homes, businesses, schools and hospitals.
Bring your coins in today! Look for a plastic "Jug of Coins for Haiti" in the main office
and add your coins to help Haiti. We'll continue collecting money until
Mardi Gras, then we can see how many jugs we filled!
Our money will be donated to “Save the Children.” "Save the Children” has worked
in Haiti for 25 years. Their offices did not suffer the structural damage of other
non-governmental organizations, so they are up and running with 100 staff
on the ground providing food, water, shelter and child-friendly spaces.
This event is sponsored by Esprit de Corps. For more info call Melissa Sikes 683-8384.

Bonjour!
Discover French Pastries without the Extra Drive or Travel!
My name is Barbara Walraet. I am the parent of a fourth grader at Fox Hollow Charlemagne. As a French native speaker, I feel blessed to have found such an amazing school, where our children learn important and fundamental values, expand their horizon, learn to embrace diversity, learn about French culture, and diligently learn to master the French language.
Many of you already know about my new venture as a “Pastry Chef” with the opening of my French Pâtisserie, “CARAMEL” in Eugene (please visit our website at: www.carameleugene.com ).
Enrolling your child in the French immersion program shows your interest in France and its culture. Therefore, we developed our new Community Supported Pastry (CSP) program so you can discover French specialties without having to drive any farther than the school! Take home sweet or savory specialties throughout the school year, which will be delivered to Charlemagne on two Fridays (every first and third week) each month (1:30 pm at pick-up time or 5 p.m. for Fun Club families). In addition, 10% of the proceeds from your CSP enrollment will directly support Charlemagne as a fundraiser!
To enroll, you can download the flier and get more info about the Program.
We are looking forward sharing with you a tasty bit of French culture. - One pastry at a time!
Merci et bon appétit!

SCRIP IS EASY MONEY!!!
Speaking
of
contributions, one of the most under-utilized sources of FREE money
is scrip. Please read below for more information about how you
can make money for the school at absolutely no cost to you. This
really is too good to be true, but for once it really is true.
Using scrip or escrip is an easy way to make a donation to Charlemagne at no cost to you. Local merchants donate from 5 – 10% of the amount of your purchase directly to our school and our national merchants donate from 1– 6% of your purchase amount, again at no cost to you. The merchants do this as a service to the community and schools. You may buy Sundance, Newmans, and Uncommon Scents Scrip at the office (just ask Heather) or register online to use escrip for a variety of stores.
Check out the participating merchants for our area and elsewhere in the country at: http://www.escrip.com/ .
