SHOP & Give Back to Pueblo!
Borders gives schools free gift cards worth $15
On Dec. 4 and Dec. 5, any Borders customer making an in-store purchase, whether of a book or a bagel or a latte, will receive a $15 gift card to donate to a public school of choice.
Anyone purchasing the book "Waiting for 'Superman': How We Can Save America's Failing Public Schools" will receive a second $15 card.
The much discussed documentary "Waiting for Superman," which offers a harsh portrait of the country's public schools, has inspired a promotional collaboration among the Borders Group superstore chain, an education fundraiser and the publisher of the movie's companion book.

Mariposa is having a shopping day at Brilliant Sky Bookstore on Chandler and 48th St. this Saturday from 10a-8p.

Dangerous New Drug – BE AWARE!
We received the following information that we felt was important to share with our families:
There is an incredibly dangerous substance our kids are being exposed to, called SPICE or K2. It is 15 times more powerful than marijuana. Tremors, seizures, elevated heart rate, black outs…
It's legal in 44 states (including AZ) and easily accessible. It is sold over-the-counter at smoke shops, swap meets, etc.
Please take a few minutes to look over the following PowerPoint, provided by the Tempe Union High School District.
To view: click on the link below and select “open”. You can also watch the CBS news spot within the slideshow by clicking “CBS News Spot” on the introduction page.
