Dear Parents,
In the spirit of the holiday season, the JES PTO is partnering with Christmas is for Children (CIFC) to sponsor 68 angels. CIFC is a locally based non-profit dedicated to helping children in CISD and throughout DFW who are in need of support this holiday season. Nearly all CISD schools participate in this program, and we are so excited to do our part in giving joy and support to children this year.

Each class will be assigned two angels to sponsor. If you wish to participate, you may view and sign up to donate specific items needed by our angels. Your Room Parent will send an email with a Sign Up Genius with specific items requested by your angels. Each sign up link includes your entire grade’s classes, so please specifically sign up for the items listed under your child’s homeroom class.
The items are categorized into Wants, Needs, and Educational Items. Our goal is to provide each of our angels with at least 5 items, distributed between all of the categories.

Your teacher has two large collection bags in their room, each labeled with our angels’ name. Please label your donated item(s) with the angel’s name (please use a sticky note or other removable label) and have your child deliver it to the classroom by Wednesday, December 4th. The teacher will check off the items that have been received. Please do not wrap your donated items.
This program will replace the Holiday Book Exchange in classes this year.
Thank you for your consideration to give back to our community.
Again, please deliver all donated items by Wednesday, December 4th.
