Tomorrow: 1.00 Comfy Clothes/PJ Dress Down for CCMC
This Friday, December 13th, students may wear “comfy” clothes (sweatpants, sweatshirts, t-shirts) or weather- & school-appropriate PJs to school for a $1.00 donation. All proceeds, which should come to school with the student on Friday, and will benefit the Center for Cancer and Blood Disorders at Connecticut Children’s Medical Center.
CCMCs annual PJ day, which many schools and businesses across the state participate in, helps not only raise money for a great cause, but is in honor of all the brave kids fighting cancer at Connecticut Children’s and elsewhere.
Please remember, students must adhere to the dress code/dress down guidelines and PJs must have sleeves (short sleeves are ok) & long pants. Also, no slippers due to safety concerns.
