Fall Fundraiser Finale
As a special THANK YOU to all of our students for doing their best with our Fall Fundraiser, all of the children
were treated to a fun reward show by Circus Mojo on Friday.
Top fundraising students from each grade were asked to be assistants during the performances, and kids who
raised $50 or more got to participate in a bonus session that taught them how to do a cool circus trick!
Students raised $12, 496.07 this year with our Fall Fundraiser. These generous donations will help to fund the
22 in-school enrichment programsbeing offered this year to our kids!

JFB PTO at Work for OUR Kids!
This is why we raise funds!Here are two wonderful programs offered to our students this week:
October 6 and 7, 2014:The Reason for the Seasons;
Cincinnati Museum Center(first grade)
Using globes, students learned about the seasons and
found out why spring and summer are warmer times
of the year and fall and winter are colder. They
created the sounds of spring and explored the effects
of camouflage with real animal mounts from Museum
collections. Then, they won a seasonal prize when they
correctly identified which animal had visited by
studying scat and tracks left behind.
October 10, 2014:Readers are Leaders; Midwest School Shows(second grade)
This interactive assembly reinforces elementary grade level reading and English language arts skills by using
entertainment, illusions, humor, and fun props to review reading comprehension, phonics, and help
encourage students to discover that reading can be fun. The show also incorporates routines that help
students discover story building and creative writing.
Box Tops for Education
Clip and save Box Tops for Education to help earn rewards for JF Burns! Every Box Top that you send in is
worth 10 cents for the school AND counts towards your childs classroom tally. The classroom with the highest
