PARENT NOTES:
Please consider heading to Nonesuch Books tonight to support our PTA’s fundraiser. From 5:00-7:00, a percentage of the sales will help to fund some great activities for our students. There will be a bake sale, as well. Thank you!
With the first snowfall of the year, it is time to start thinking about Mahoney’s Ski and Snowboard Club! The paperwork will be available Monday morning starting at 8:10. Space is limited to 50 students and all paperwork and payment must be in to get your name on the list.
Mahoney’s Food Drive has begun. We are partnering not only with the local food kitchens, but also with a district initiative to support some South Portland families, as well. While any and all donations are greatly appreciated, here are some suggestions of helpful items:
Cereal
Peanut butter
Jelly
Canned meals (ravioli, soups, etc).
Mac and Cheese
Canned meats (tuna, chicken)
Canned vegetables

Student sessions are every Wednesday and begin in room 110.
Mahoney Game Club:
The next meeting of the Game Club is Wednesday November 13, after school. This is a weekly drop-in club that is meant to be a spot for students to play different board games and card games with others, having fun and building social skills without a screen in front of them! Have an interested student? Have them stop by Mr. Risbara’s, room 106, to sign up."
