It's that time of year again with the holidays quickly approaching!
Our students get excited about this fundraiser every year as they know any money collected goes directly to families within our community that have need of assistance for the holidays. Donations have provided clothing, food, shoes, books, toys and more.
Donating is completely optional, but we will also have a schoolwide competition to
see which classrooms can raise the most money.
The top classes will receive a reward and of course bragging rights!
To make things as simple as possible, donations will be accepted via cash or check,
or with a credit card online (see website for online link). Use the link below for the online option.
**In addition, if your family is in need of assistance this year, please contact Mrs. Treasure (our school counselor) or the front office for an application.
Your information is kept strictly confidential.
Don't forget to make a submission for our Military Hero Wall.
