- Candy Grams: It's that time again. Valentine Candy Grams will be sold next week Monday-Wednesday at lunch. They are $.50 each and will be delivered on Thursday Feb 14th. Make sure you know the homeroom teacher of the person you are sending to, so we can be sure to get them to the correct room.

The first hour will be dedicated to questions about the Future Facilities Process where participants will have the opportunity to ask questions and provide feedback. Participants will also be encouraged to take an online questionnaire to offer their input on the District's school facilities options. The second hour will be solely a Q&A opportunity for all those participating to ask questions to Champaign Unit 4.
- Box Tops: Pull those General Mills Box Tops off the refrigerator and out of that drawer, clip them up and send them in to Edison to turn them into $$. Students can turn Box Tops in to any of their teachers, and they will be collected to send in to General Mills. Box Tops need to be in to teachers by February 22nd to be turned into dollars for this school year.
