Sexual Abuse Prevention Program
A sexual abuse prevention program is presented each year to all elementary students in the Columbia Public Schools. Any interested parent will have the opportunity to preview the materials that will be used in the classrooms. The Columbia elementary school counselors will host a special meeting for parents to preview the films and materials, which will be shown to students during the 2009-2010 school year. The evening meetings will be held on Thursday, October 1, 2009, at Mill Creek Elementary School, 2200 Nifong Blvd. West, Columbia, MO 65203 and Tuesday, October 13, 2009, Derby Ridge Elementary School, 4000 Derby Ridge Drive., Columbia, MO. 65202. A letter with more information will be sent home soon. Please contact our school counselor, Mary Carroll at 214-3630 or mcarroll@columbia.k12.mo.us if you have questions about the preview nights or materials.

Watch DOGS
Wow, last night was amazing.. 250 dads showed up and several hundred kids!!
You can learn all about Watch DOGS (Dads Of Great Students) by linking up to: http://fathers.com and then go to the Watch DOGS section.
We need father figures to sign up in the Parkade Elementary office, or email Amy or Carrie Freeman. You will be a dog for a day, meaning you wear a cool shirt, you hang out with kids as they go through their day, and the kids will benefit from men being involved and around them.
Any questions contact Carrie Freeman or Amy Larson at the above email addresses.
Thanks!

SchoolPax
I have SchoolPAX packets available. The online ordering code is: FCYD. I will have packets sent home with students. They have cards and information in each envelope. ALL you do is swipe the card (just like a Gerb's card) when you go to Subway, Footlocker, etc. and a portion of money will go to Parkade. YOU PAY NOTHING EXTRA, just remember to use the card. If you have questions, email Amy at amy@karischurch.org. Enjoy! Just use your card and the school earns money. That is it!!
