    Silver Graphics Art Fundraiser - Art Due 2/2 @ 3:10

    Our annual art fundraiser with Silver Graphics is underway. This is our only art fundraiser and we hope to raise enough money to cover the entire cost of our art budget. This allows the PTO to use their funds for other needed areas at LCM. Your child's artwork will be scanned and can be turned into beautiful gift items like coffee mugs, ceramic tiles, dish towels , tote bags, stationery, etc. If you have any beloved art at home (such as art from preschool or siblings) that you would like to submit, please label it with your name and phone number and turn it in to the office by 2/2. All students will receive a free, no-obligation print of your artwork to keep.
