UPCOMING EVENTS
Saxe Staff Appreciation Week
May 3-7
Saxe Staff Appreciation Week will be the first week of May and we are preparing to shower the entire staff with love and gratitude.
We have a special treat planned each day of the week:
May 3 - Notes of gratitude delivered to teachers
May 4 - Bubble & Brew Coffee Truck
May 5 - Catered Lunch by Simply Delicious
May 6 - Desserts prepared by Peyton's Pastries
May 7 - Staff gifts
In the past, we have asked families to donate food and desserts for lunch. Due to Covid concerns, we are instead asking for a monetary donation to help with the cost of the catered box lunch and packaged cookies and dessert bars. Please consider donating HERE. Thank you for your support.
