Valentine's Day at Tirso
This year our 4th graders, who are participating in a week long trip to Lisbon, got creative with fundraising ideas! With the help of the Language Assistants and a group of teachers, these 4th graders sold carnations for students to send to others in the school. Carnations were on sale for a week before Valentine's Day, and students, teachers, and staff were able to purchase one flower for one euro to be sent to the person of their choosing. The day of Valentine's Day arrived, and the team was busy attaching hand written notes to each flower, categorizing them, and delivering them to their lucky recepients. All in all, the fundraiser was a great success, and the school was filled with love to celebrate Valentine's Day!
