Hello Wranglers
We are gearing up for our annual EAST Conference in March. We have worked with Skyline to come up with some shirts for our EAST Program. In order to have the shirts made at a decent price, we would need to order 50 items. Skyline has set up an online store so that you may order from them directly and they will send the shirts to GEORGE JUNIOR HIGH at the end of February. We are not making any money for our program with these shirts. It was easier to set it up with Skyline so no money or confusion ever passes through the EAST Program's hands.
Shirts are decently priced - with everything nearly under $25. I hope you will consider buying a shirt (OR ALL 4) and support our program by wearing a shirt. PLUS WHO DOESN'T NEED A REASONABLY PRICED HOODIE OR SWEATSHIRT???
If you work in Springdale School District, I can send your shirt through campus mail. If you want to support our program, you can purchase a shirt to donate to our program so our students can wear it during our EAST events.
If you are interested in sponsoring an EAST member with a gift of a t-shirt, please reach out to our program george-jhs@eastschools.org
The Deadline is FEB 17th!
