We have yet to get back the totals on our Spring Creek Night, but what a wonderful success. Roya Tompkins, our Fundraising Chair for the PTO, did a fabulous job scheduling the night for DCE and getting the information out to the parents and staff. The line was out the door for over an hour and a half. Thank you to every parent who took their children to Spring Creek to either eat there or pick up their food. A HUGE thank you to every teacher or administrator that worked all day and then went and worked up at Spring Creek for our school. It is going to pay off in a BIG BIG way. Spring Creek is the only restaurant that the PTO partners with for school nights. They are incredibly generous in their gifting. Most restaurants give 15% of only the school's receipts. Spring Creek gives 25% of the entire night's receipts regardless of whether that ticket came from a DCE parent. Last year, we received a check from Spring Creek for $1400. I suspect the check this year will be even larger. For one night's work, that is FABULOUS!!! Last year, we had 89 students. This year we had 177. That is twice as many students who participate, which goes to show what an amazing group of parents we have at DCE this year.
Thank you for all you do to support our school. I know we ask a lot of you and you never let us down,
Lisa
