School garden: Approved by Sherwood Friends Church, to be behind the portables. We can apply for grants as a non-profit. Will discuss

Mud Puddles Fundraiser: Nov 13-19. Muddle Puddles will donate 20% of profit to SCS when “Sherwood Charter School” is mentioned at sale.
Winter Festival Plans: Theme: 80s sneakers party, donating gently used sneakers. Need a coordinator. Elisa Graybell will make robot for
sneaker box; potentially paint a backdrop. Tentatively plan for a January date, and push Sock Hop Family Dance into March.
Printing for PAC: Home printer or Office Depot/library printing? Home printing not feasible long-term.

Fundraising with purpose: With each fundraiser, communicate what event/cause the fundraiser is supporting.
PAC website: Full of great information; look there for answers about library, meeting agendas, spring baskets for garden, etc.
Concern raised by parent: How can we help kids who are going without lunch because they can’t afford food? Post info about Sherwood
