Reminder

BIG Y and STOP AND SHOP points! Thank you to everyone that listed Mountain View as the recipient of his or her Big Y points. We earned 3,682,931 points through your generosity. With these points we were able to purchase many items including a new digital camera with 2 memory cards, 2 DVD/VHS recorders, a wireless microphone for the cafeteria, a large amount of recess equipment (balls, soft Frisbees, etc), a color printer and an art cart. All of these items were greatly needed and appreciated! The Big Y program is over (at least for now). However, Stop and Shop has just started a similar program. Please sign up and designate Mountain View as the school to receive the benefits of your spending! Our number is 05100! Thanks! |
