“3O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for
his mercy endureth forever. 4To him
who alone doeth great wonders: for his
mercy endureth forever.” Psalm
136:3&4
A Note from the Principal:
Over seven hundred pies later our task
was completed on Saturday around 3:00
pm. Thank you to everyone who came
and worked. We had teachers, parents,
grandparents, friends, co-workers, past
Noah staff and students. Now we are
on to the task of getting the pies to the
people who purchased them. Pies need
to be picked up either today, Monday,
November 7th or tomorrow, Tuesday,
November 8th. See your email for
pickup times. We do have a few extra
pies to sell. Let Mrs. Harris know in the
office if you are interested in one or
more.
Just a heads up about the school
schedule for the remainder of 2016.
Next week is a full week of school. The
following week is Thanksgiving Break.
We are again taking the whole week off
for break (Nov. 21st-25th). Once we
return from Thanksgiving break, we
have three weeks of school until
Christmas break. On Thursday,
December 8th at 7:00 pm, we will have
our Christmas concert. Students from
Kindergarten through 6th grade will be
presenting musical numbers along with
our school band. If your child is unable
to attend the concert, please let Mrs.
Harris know in the office. The students
have been working hard to prepare the
pieces they will be presenting.

Operation Christmas Child
Shoeboxes need to be dropped off by
THIS Friday, Nov. 11th. Our goal is 50
boxes. Preprinted boxes, donation
envelopes, and boy/girl labels are in the
office. Checks for the $7.00 shipping
fee need to be made out to Samaritan’s
Purse. Due to Noah’s limited budget,
we are unable to pay the shipping for
boxes turned in. The school basically
serves as a drop off point for the boxes.
Lou Gates will pick up the boxes from
the school and transport them to the
local collection center.
Christmas Baskets
This year will be our eighth annual
Christmas Basket fundraiser. The
Christmas baskets are auctioned off at
the Christmas concert scheduled for
Thursday, December 8th. Each class
will decide upon a theme this week and
have a signup sheet on their doors for
suggested items needed. Items for the
baskets are due on Wednesday,
November 16th. Mrs. McDowell will
then prepare the baskets to be available
for viewing and bidding the week of
Christmas concert.
Hearing Screening
Audiologist from Laramie County School
District 1 will be at Noah on Thursday,
November 10th to do hearing
screenings for students in grades K, 1,
2, 3, and 5 and new students in grade 4.
If you do not want your child(ren) to be
tested, please inform their teacher.
Maverik’s Give Stuff
Friends, family and coworkers can
donate their Trail Points from Maverik’s
Adventure Club card and Nitro card to
the school. Just go to
www.maverik.com/home/account/rewar
ds.html and choose “spend ‘em”. A
screen will pop up with a red oval in the
middle that says “spend your trail points
here”. Click on the red oval then click
on “give stuff”. A screen should pop up
listing various organizations you can
give to. Look for the school and click on
it. You will then indicate the number of
points you would like to give that are
available on your card. Ten thousand
trail points equates to $100. We have
plenty of Adventure Club cards in the
office if you are interested in
participating. You receive a free
fountain drink for activating the card.
Giving Tuesday
We’ve got black Friday and cyber
Monday. How about Giving Tuesday?
Giving Tuesday will be Tuesday,
November 29th. If you would like to
participate, any money raised will be
applied against the $200 donation
amount each family is required to raise.
Participants can give online through the
school’s website. A donor will need to
indicate what family they are giving for
so the proper credit can be applied.
More information will be emailed by the
end of the week.
