Each month at Mark Twain we focus on one of the seven habits, from Leader in Me. October's focus is Habit #1: Be Proactive. Check out our newsletter w/information about Habit #1 & ways your child can practice being Proactive at home!

Instead of doing traditional fundraisers, Mark Twain partners with our local Domino's Pizza to have monthly fundraising nights. On the 3rd Thursday of every month, 15% of ALL orders (dine-in, carry out or delivery) placed between 4pm and 8pm is donated to Mark Twain. Our first pizza fundraising night of the year is tomorrow. Be sure to order dinner tomorrow, Thursday 9/21, from Domino's (217-345-3030) between 4pm and 8pm and 15% will be donated back to Mark Twain. This is a great opportunity to support Mark Twain and our community. #winwin
