Bring in new or gently used winter gear (coats, hats, gloves, mittens, scarves) and put them in the grade-level donation boxes in the lunchroom. The winning grade will receive PBIS points! All winter gear donated will go to People’s City Mission to be distributed to families in need.
Are you missing a jacket, sweatshirt, lunch sack or other items? We have two large bags of sweatshirts that belong to many of you. Take a look at the Lost ‘n Found and if it’s not there do ask in the office. We will be tossing lunch bags due to the smell if left behind. These items need to go home.
