Programs & Events Provided by Home & School
2021-22
Even with COVID last year, we were still able to provide some fun and creative events for families that were safe. We will continue to do that this year, plus have a few favorite events return. We are looking forward to an exciting and involved year!
pencilgrams
For several occasions throughout the year, including birthdays, send your child a scented PencilGram!


box tops
Traditional Box Tops clips are being phased out of production,
but may continue to be found on many products throughout the store.
You can still clip and send them to school.
Eventually the Box Tops program will become digital-only. Participating brands are starting to change their packaging from a traditional Box Tops clip to the new Box Top label.
If you see this label, use the new Box Tops app to scan your receipt.
Box Tops are still worth 10¢ each for your school.
The app will find participating products purchased at any store and instantly add cash to your school's earnings online.

great art - stand by for possible virtual opportunities for presenting great art!
Do you like to read stories to your child's class? Help us expose Fox Chase students to the amazing artists in our world. Sign up to read a book about a famous artist and then show one of his/her paintings to the class! Everything you need is located in the Great Art Cabinet in the library! If this inspires your own inner artist, feel free to bring a related art project for the students (Art project not required.)
Once you have signed up for a month, get in touch with your child's teacher to set a date and time for your presentation. The artist that you will be presenting is listed next to the month. The book and piece of artwork that you will present are located in the Great Art Cabinet in the LRC.
