At the Knights Ferry School Board meeting, Maureen McKibban is President of the Board, Mark Schlegel is clerk of the Board and Sherron McCarthy is the Board Representative. Shelli Borba, representing the Parent-Teacher Club, told of the recycling program and the blue and yellow bins for all CVR items. Also the Box Top Program has already earned $300 and the Shares Card earnings for July, August and September brought in $1,064.30. These are painless ways to contribute to the school. A new recycling program has been started for Inkjet Cartridges with a print head. Donate to the box in the office. The KFS Winter Program will be Thursday, December 16th at 6 p.m.
