CHARLESTON GIFT WRAP FUNDRAISER!!

This is the main fundraiser the PTA does to help earn money to support our school, classrooms, students and families. Your support is greatly appreciated!

Packets have gone home. Please take a moment to read the parent letter enclosed in the packet. Students can earn daily prizes and prizes for number of items sold. You can order out of the catalog and go online and see more items that can be included with your catalog order.

REMEMBER, families can place orders online and select the “ship to school” option at check-out and they’ll receive FREE SHIPPING ONLINE!! *NOTE- Credit must be assigned to a student in order to select the “ship to school” option during check-out. This is a HUGE perk for Alaskans to complete their holiday shopping online without having to pay shipping fees.

~~~~Packets with orders are due back Monday, September 24th. ~~~~

Please use our school id z-12907 when sharing the website with friend and family or checking out items not in the catalogs. Follow this CHARLESTON GIFT WRAP LINK to go online, register and start your holiday shopping early!

Dear Joy Families,

Joy Elementary is now equipped with a buzz-in security system. For the safety of all our students and staff, the buzz-in system went into effect Monday, August 27th. 

Joy’s back doors are now locked at 8:30 A.M. and the front doors locked at 8:45 A.M. This is a change to past procedures and the information in our student handbook.

The buzz-in security panel is located on the wall to the left of the main doors. It is equipped with an intercom and video surveillance camera that allows you to speak with someone in the main office.
How the system works:

• PUSH THE WHITE BUTTON IN THE WALL PANEL
• REMAIN IN FRONT OF THE CAMERA
• IDENTIFY YOURSELF WHEN YOU HEAR SOMEONE ANSWER THE INTERCOM.
• GO DIRECTLY TO THE OFFICE ONCE YOU ARE BUZZED IN

Upon entering please go to the office for assistance. We will deliver items dropped off, call students down for pick up, walk late students to class (if needed).  If you have arranged to volunteer in the classroom you will need to sign in and get a visitors badge. Although this procedure may be a bit more cumbersome for visitors, it greatly increases our ability to monitor who is allowed access to the halls and rooms occupied by your children. 

Thank you for helping us protect our most valued assets, your children.
