Dear Parents,

Once again, Sequoya Elementary has chosen to offer EduKit School Supply kits for the upcoming school year. The program is a time saving, simple way for you to ensure that your student has exactly what they need to start the year off right and to be successful throughout the year. You will no longer need to go from store to store in search of that elusive item that teachers are expecting. EduKit will take care of that for you! Your kit will contain the name brand items your teachers have chosen.

To order, there are two simple options:
1. Go to www.edukitinc.com and pay online through EduKit's secure website by June 3rd.
2. Complete the order form and return it to the school by May 18th with check made payable to your school.

You will order your kit based on your child’s grade level next year. Your child’s EduKit will be in your child’s classroom at the Meet and Greet on August 6th.

Did you miss the deadline for ordering? Take advantage of the EduKit’s Last Chance sale! Simply go to www.edukitinc.com to order. Last Chance kits will be delivered to your home shortly before school begins in the fall. There is an additional fee for this service.

Thank you for your participation in the EduKit program at Sequoya Elementary!

Sincerely,
Allyson Lafflam, This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it
