SCHOOL SUPPLIES NEEDED
Our school is in desperate need of supplies! Although many donations came in at the beginning of the year, you would be amazed by how quickly we go through them. (We use the disinfecting wipes to clean door knobs and light switches to minimize illness.)  Please drop items off at the front desk.
 
The following items are very much appreciated:
Kleenex
Disinfecting wipes
Rolls of paper towels
Hand sanitizer
Plastic forks and spoons

THANK YOU, BASIS FAMILIES!
LOWER SCHOOL FALL DANCE PARTY
ADVANCE TICKETS AVAILABLE UNTIL OCTOBER 22nd AT 8:00 PM
VOLUNTEERS NEEDED!
We need your help:  If you would like to volunteer at the event and/or donate snacks for the party, we would greatly appreciate it.
 

Look for this Martian on Tuesday, October 20th after school. Do you know who this Martian is?

NEXT WEEK:

Oct 20: 8:30 am - Quartz Trail

This is an easy-to-moderate, there-and-back, 5-mile hike. It is relatively flat for most of the hike with a short, steep, 850 ft. climb at the destination quartz outcrop (Approx. 2 hours). Dogs on a leash are welcome; however, the steepness of the climb makes it inappropriate for small dogs.

Oct 22:  7:30 am - Granite Mountain Loop

This is an easy-to-moderate, 5-mile loop with little elevation gain around Granite Mountain in the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. Dogs on a leash are welcome. Allow 2-3 hours.

Oct 27: Cone Mountain
Oct 29: Dixie Mine (including petroglyphs)

Nov. 5: Tom's Thumb trailhead to Gateway trailhead - one way, 10-mile hike
