Tiger Families,
Just a quick reminder that orders are due 3/22/2024 at MIDNIGHT for FREE shipping to the school! Fun facts: With every order, the art department at the elementary school gets a few pretty pennies given back to them. We've had many orders sent in already, however, if we can get 10 more students to order, we hit a new tier, which means more money! Let's help the best art teacher, Mrs. Bevitt hit this new goal!!
READY.... SET...…ORDER!!!
Don’t wait! These are the days your student will treasure forever.
Make sure they have this keepsake to capture the memories.
Deadline is Sunday, March 24th. You can order online at www.inter-state.com/order and use order code: 82127W.
