PENNY WAR
Thank you to EVERYONE for a great Penny War. Because of everyone’s generosity, we were able to surpass last year’s total. We raised $5,356.94!!!  Awesome job, Bear family!

FREE MONEY
The PTA needs parents and grandparents who can help us enter Coke Rewards codes. It is pretty easy to scan codes in with the Coke Rewards app. It can be done at home on your own time. Please let Kelly Stanton know if you are able to volunteer.

BEAR TOURS
Magnet school applications are available on the MPS website. Tours for the public for Bear Exploration Center will be held from 9-11 am on January 15, 16, 17, 22, 23, 24, 29, 30, and 31. Invite your friends, neighbors and family to come see what makes Bear so special!
