HALLOWEEN CARNIVAL:

One of the biggest things that kids look forward to at the annual STM Halloween Carnival is the TREATS! But, we need your help in order to make this year's Bake Sale a success! The 5th grade will be running the Bake Sale, but the entire school is asked to bake. Please consider signing up to bake one of the items using the link below.

**Remember that all items MUST be pre-packaged (ex. 3 cookies to a Ziploc, 2 brownies, 1 cupcake, etc.) and be sure to label them ‘bake sale’ so that there’s no confusion.
