Friday Reminder: Turkey Trot Monday

Dear SSES Families:

Our annual Turkey Trot is coming up on Monday, November 10th, from 2:15–2:45 PM!

Please remember that your child’s “ticket to trot” is a nonperishable food item to support the Easton Senior Center’s Thanksgiving Food Baskets for the Needy program. Students should bring their donation to school on Monday morning.

Requested items include:
Cranberry sauce • Pie mix/filling • Canned vegetables • Pie crust • Gravy mix or canned gravy • Evaporated milk • Instant or canned potatoes/sweet potatoes • Brownie or cake mix • Stuffing mix • Cornbread mix • Grocery gift cards or cash/check for turkeys

🦃 Please check expiration dates—expired food cannot be accepted.

Students will carry their donation to the field by class. PreK–2 will trot on the lower field, and Grades 3–5 on the upper field.

Thank you for supporting this fun and meaningful SSES tradition!

Warmly,

Kimberly Fox Santora
Principal

Christina Ulreich-Kean
Assistant Principal
