When you go to Sonic Drive-in, let them know that your child is in a “Limeades for Learning” class.  They will give you stickers that count as extra VOTES! Ask for as many stickers as they will give you. Send the stickers to school and I will be happy to put the votes in for our project.

Voting begins September 25th!

This project is an exciting experience for all the students as we work as a team to earn something special for our classroom.
