Each year, we host a Pancake Breakfast and Festival of Trees & Lights for our SCVi Families to enjoy! For those not familiar, the Festival of Trees & Lights is a highly successful fundraiser where each grade level auctions off a decorated holiday tree with a specific theme at the Pancake Breakfast. This year, the event will be held on Friday, Dec. 7th and is always held prior to school starting, beginning at 7 a.m.
The following will be the themes for each grade level:
Innovations: MOVIES/FILM
Explorations: UNICORNS
TK/K/1: LEGOS
2/3: DR. SEUSS
4/5: VIDEO GAMES
6th Grade: HARRY POTTER
7th Grade: STRANGER THINGS
8th Grade: DIA DE LOS MUERTOS
Upper School: THE NIGHTMARE BEFORE CHRISTMAS
The following items will be needed to successfully decorate each tree, (please look out for an email from your Facilitator, if you haven’t received one already):
- One 3-foot (or any size) artificial tree per grade level, (e.g. All of TK/K/1 will need ONE tree, all of 2/3 will need ONE tree, etc.)
- Anything related to the theme of the tree to decorate (ornaments, gift cards, toys, games, etc.)
- Floral wire (green or silver — each ornament or item will need to be wired on to prevent them from falling off)
- If families are unable to donate because of location, gift cards to Michaels, JoAnn’s, etc. to purchase necessary items would be appreciated.
There will be bins in the lobbies of Little iLEADers, the Lower School and the Upper School for donation drop-offs.
PLEASE NOTE: ALL MONIES EARNED FROM THE TREES WILL GO BACK TO THE GRADE LEVEL THE TREE REPRESENTS.
