Saxe Middle School Magazine and Donation Drive

Saxe Middle School PTC officially launches its annual Magazine Drive on October 14. The Magazine Drive and accompanying Donation Program support 50 percent of the Saxe PTC annual budget.  

This is an exciting fundraiser for the students and the school. PTC committee co-chair, Jennifer Essigs is eager to get to work on the event.

"It is a great fundraiser," she said. "We kick it off with Red and Black day which brings the students together. The energy continues throughout the week because the students enjoy the competition of winning prizes and the whole school benefits from the money raised which funds important purchases like SMART Boards."
