Science and Engineering Fair




It is time once again to prepare for the Elementary Science and Engineering Fair.  The fair is open to students in grades K-5. Though participation in this annual event is voluntary, we want to encourage interested students to take advantage of this opportunity to exhibit their knowledge. 
If your child is interested in participating please return the Science and Engineering Fair letter to your child’s teacher so you may have a handbook. Our campus fair will be January 9th this year! We look forward to some great entries to represent Christie Elementary!
If you have any questions feel free to email the Science Fair Coordinator at Jessica.Malloy@pisd.edu

Canned Food Drive!!!




The Christie Elementary Student Council is collecting cans to help out the Plano Santa's Holiday Food Drive this year.  Please encourage your children to bring cans throughout the whole month of NOVEMBER!  

Last year we collected 743 cans, and we want to surpass that and collect at least 850 cans this year!! The 743 cans collected last year were enough to feed 1 person for 135 days or a family of 4 for 5 weeks!  We can make a difference!  

Come on Christie Cubs.....let's show how Compassionate and Giving we can be!  


EVERY CAN COUNTS!
Christie Elementary and our Student Council are collecting cans and non-perishable food items for the Plano Santa's Holiday Food Drive throughout the month of November. The 2 classrooms with the most cans donated will receive an extra recess and a jeans pass for their teacher.
