PAW PRIDE A NEW BEGINNING INSIDE THIS ISSUE: 2015-16 LYNNWOOD SUPPLY LIST It is our hope the following acronym for the word FREEDOM will assist you as you start this new school year. F: Follow Him forward Romans 15:5 (NIV)–We are to follow Christ. As we pursue Him and seek to imitate His ways, we move forward in our process of change. R: Repent readily Jeremiah 18:9 (MSG)– When we repent, God will start over with us. A New Beginning…exactly what we are seeking. When we admit and repent of our shortcomings, and sinfulness, God is faithful to forgive and make us white like snow. Clean, fresh, new. E: Earnestly Pray Ephesians 6:18 (NLT) Prayers are incredibly powerful. As we earnestly pray, we will find ourselves empowered by the One true Power Source. SUMMER FAMILY FUN at the PARK VACCINATION INFORMATION AUTHORIZATION for ADMIN of ORAL MEDICATION SUMMER PIP HOURS OPPORTUNITY BACK-TO-SCHOOL NACHO NIGHT E: Enjoy the journey 1 Samuel 2:1 (NLT) As we start the new school year, receiving answers from God along the way, we will have a number of reasons to rejoice. Many times we are so focused on the destination; we forget to enjoy God’s journey. He has planned a perfect path just for you. D: Devour His Word Hebrews 4:12 (NIV) God’s Word is the ultimate food for our thoughts, nourishment for our souls, and the map we must follow. We need to dive into God’s truth and devour His words like the sustaining substance they were created to be. O: Open your heart and mind to His truth Proverbs 3:5 (KJV) In order to grasp God’s truth, we need to pray Paw PARTICULARS CPCS LYNNWOOD WEBSITE: TELL YOUR FRIENDS! www. cpcsschools.com/Lynnwood/ If you can’t find a missing paper or you’ve deleted that email, check out our website where most of the information you need is posted. The Early Childhood Department at Lynnwood offers a preschool setting to 2½-year-olds who are usually still working on potty training. We will help with that! So tell your friends, who may think they have to wait to enroll in our wonderful school! If you know someone who is planning on enrolling in our PreKindergarten classroom, please let them know that the class is filling fast and paperwork needs to come in now. SEATTLE STREET KIDS EMAILS A WAY OF LIFE HERE AT CPCS LYNNWOOD BOXTOPS FOR Please get in the habit of checking your emails. We send out many reminders and much information you won’t want to miss! Friday’s PAW PEEK email lets you know what is coming for the following week. EDUCATION CAMPBELL SOUP LABELS for an open heart, and an open mind, to better receive the truth, know the truth, and obey the truth when we hear it. Be prepared to hear the Lord speak. He will. M: Make new friends and move mountains Colossians 3:12-13 (KJV) As we walk in godly love for one another, by forgiving, encouraging, and helping, we will find the strength to do what one person alone could never, ever accomplish. We need the power of the Spirit, and the power of each other. Together, we can move mountains! We were never met to “go it” alone. Jesus had 12 disciples. He knew the value of loving and supporting relationships. Let us learn from His example. PAGE 2 CUB COMMENTARY July! What a fun month this is! Backyard BBQ’s, long days, warm temperatures and, of course, fireworks celebrating our country’s FREEDOM from British rule! As Christians, we think of FREEDOM in Christ, FREEDOM from hopelessness and despair, and finally, FREEDOM from sin’s eternal consequences—death. FREEDOM! Many think of FREEDOM as it is fought on the battlefield— soldiers fighting to protect FREEDOM; taking FREEDOM away from others, or restoring it to those who have lost it. In the USA we think of freedoms such as FREEDOM of speech, FREEDOM of religion or FREEDOM of the press. Jesus tells us in John 8:31-32 that we will know the truth, and the truth will set us FREE. Jesus came to set us FREE. We could not FREE ourselves. It has to be Jesus. In Him we are set FREE and made new if we abide in His Word (John 8:31). We are no longer slaves to sin and death—we are FREE! As you celebrate America’s FREEDOM on the 4th of July, think of your own FREEDOM in Christ, and do a little celebrating about that, too! Mrs. Isakson CUB FUNDRAISERS Year-round BOXTOPS FOR EDUCATION Most families already purchase General Mills products at some time or other. All we ask is that you save the BOXTOPS FOR EDUCATION cutout on the package and send them in with your student. BOXTOPS ARE worth 10¢ each and they quickly add up to a very easy cash amount for our school. With the growing number of participants on the BOXTOPS list, our numbers should be increasing by leaps and bounds!! CAMPBELL LABELS FOR EDUCATION What can be easier or yummier than a can of CAMPBELL’s soup for lunch? You can then turn in these UPC bar codes or lids! Use care when removing barcodes—they are often glued quite securely to the can and can present a problem removing them...PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE, do not cut or tear across the UPC code. SCRIP Do your shopping with SCRIP and you will personally receive part of the percentage profit towards tuition credit. SCRIP has varying percentages of PAW PRIDE profit but whatever it is, you can use it towards your families’ tuition. SCRIP is also available for your grocery shopping so why not earn tuition credit every time you go grocery shopping? During the school year, we have Starbucks, Fred Meyer/QFC, Safeway and Albertsons SCRIP available during office hours. FRED MEYER COMMUNITY REWARDS Sign up for the Fred Meyer Community Rewards program by linking your Fred Meyer Rewards Card to CPCS-Lynnwood at www.fredmeyer.com/ communityrewards. You can search for us by our name or by our non-profit number (NPO#83047). Then, every time you shop and use your Rewards Card, you are helping our school earn a donation! You still earn your Rewards Points, Fuel Points, and Rebates, just as you do today. TARGET—TAKE CHARGE OF EDUCATION School fundraising at Target is as easy as 1-2-3. All you need to do is shop at Target, charge your purchases to your REDcard (TargetVisa or Target Card) and Target will donate an amount equal to 1/2-1% of all your purchases to the school of your choice—CPCS-Lynnwood. To designate CPCS-Lynnwood as the school to benefit from your Target purchases, call 1-800-3166142. LIBRARY BUILDER STAMPS When we shop at your favorite Family Christian Bookstore be sure to ask for the library stamps.
