please reach out to lunchsolutions4sherwood@gmail.com .
In addition- we need families to indicate seat assignments after their student’s last name on the Lunch Solution site. This will make passing out lunches so much easier for Food Days volunteers.

Once you see your student’s name on the bottom left you can double click the last name and add the number. It will save automatically.
Don’t know the seat assignments? Contact Nataly in the office or ask your student’s teacher.
Jo in the challenge to help our friends at Red Oak Elementary AND our environment!
Our friends over at Red Oak Elementary have started a plastic bag and film recycling program with NexTrex in hopes of collecting enough to turn all that plastic into a playground bench. The bench will be a memorial to their longtime paraprofessional Mrs. Román, who sadly lost her battle with cancer this summer. Their goal is to collect 500 pounds of plastic bags and films by February. All plastic collected must be clean, dry and free of food residue.
Here is a list of items that can be recycled:
Grocery bags, bread bags, bubble wrap, dry cleaning bags, newspaper sleeves, ice bags, plastic shipping envelopes, Ziploc and other reclosable food storage bags, cereal bags, case overwrap, salt bags, pallet wrap and stretch film, wood pellet bags and produce bags.
Beginning in October, Sherwood Elementary School will have a collection bin in the front vestibule, by the main office. Please feel free to stop by during school hours to deposit plastic in the bin, OR send your Sherwood student to school with your contribution, and they can help to fill the bin!
Thank you for helping Red Oak honor Mrs. Román’s memory!
