Hulstrom is Going to Boston!!!     We are planning to go on an educational Spring Break trip for interested 4th-8th graders every year at Hulstrom.  We are starting an ongoing fundraiser October 1, 2009.  This fundraiser is open to individuals who wish to save for a future trip, whether this year or 5 years from now.  Individual students will contact friends and family and ask them to use designated King Sooper Gift Cards for their grocery, gas and other purchases from King Soopers.  These cards can be reloaded by the friends and family and 5% of the total will be designated for that individual student's trip.  These cards can be used year round so this fundraiser could be working for you from the time you are in kindergarten and all summer!!!  Opening a King Sooper Gift card that is assigned to Hulstrom (and tracked by individual card numbers for student totals) takes a minimum of $25.  The $25 will be loaded on your gift card to use towards purchases at King Soopers.  Please turn in the names of family and friends and at least $25 per card made out to Hulstrom to Mrs. Israelsen in our Power Library during the first week in October to begin this fundraiser!  You can designate a family account or an individual student account.

Peanut Free Classrooms:

 

While we understand that it can be difficult at times, we ask that NO SNACKS WITH PEANUTS be allowed at Hulstrom. Due to severe allergies, this can be a tremendous health hazard.
