Food Fines

Attention all Thomas students, if you currently have an outstanding fine balance in our
school library, here's some news you can use...Mr. Hillmer has announced a new "Food
for Fines" program that runs between now and the end of the school day on Friday,
December 16, 2011. Here's how it works: If you have an overdue book fine, you can
bring in a non-perishable food item to the LMC and your fine will be forgiven. Here's
a chance to start out the new year with a clean slate in the LMC and a chance to help
those in need. All food donations to the LMC will be given to a local food pantry. See
the library for more details. Bring some food in for a good cause, and get your fine
forgiven soon. Food for Fines only runs between today and December 16th.
