Soles4Souls

Bemidji First City Lions Club is collecting gently used shoes for Soles4Souls during the month of October. Soles4Souls is a charity that collects new and used shoes and redistributes them through direct donations to people in need. Recently several boxes have been shipped to help the hurricane victims. Some of the shoes are sent to other countries, such as Haiti, where children are not allowed to attend school if they do not have a pair of shoes. Please help bring hope, health and happiness to children around the globe through a gift of a pair of shoes. All shoe sizes are acceptable. Thank you for your donation.

Look for the blue collection box located by our Central News bulletin board. We will be collecting shoes through the end of the month.

After School Enrichment –

After School Enrichment (formerly known as 21st Century) will be held on Mondays and Wednesdays this year. Please remember that the program will not be held on days before a school break. There will be no After School Enrichment on Wednesday, Oct. 18.

There is no busing, so parents/guardians are responsible for transporting their children.

Only students who have referral letters returned may participate.

If you have not already done so, please return all permission slips as soon as possible!

Volunteers Needed!

If you are interested in helping out with the upcoming Book Fair, please contact Mrs. Lipscy in the media center.

She can be reached at or 333-3220.

Q: Is it too cold to go outside for recess?

A: Not yet – read on…

Students play outside for recess before school starts in the morning

and at lunchtime as long as the temperature is 0 degrees or above and the

wind-chill is -5 or warmer. We have had some frosty days, but it is still

warm enough to go outside for recess. Please come prepared – stay warm –

bring coats to school every day (hats and mittens may be needed on some of the colder October days, too)!
