- Garage Sale for Ann Davis Transition HouseCome one, come all! On Tuesday, December 4 the primary department is hosting a garage sale in the chapel. The sale will be open before school, beginning at 8:30 until the bell rings, and after school until 3:30. Parents are invited to shop during those times, and students will be visiting the sale during the school day with their classes.The majority of items will range in price from .25 to $2 with a few bigger pieces being priced higher.Please send children with a bit of money to shop, if you wish, and with a plastic grocery bag labelled with their name, for their purchases to go in. This could be a great opportunity for your child to buy a little Christmas gift for a sibling!
