Happy Summer! We have a very generous donor who will purchase school supplies for our students in preschool-6th grade! We are so grateful for our supportive community and specifically this generous sponsor for purchasing school supplies for our students. Students will still need to bring a few personal items: backpack, headphones (not earbuds), water bottle and non-marking gym shoes. *If a student has a special item (ex. folder or notebook) they want to bring, they can do that too. We will have more information in the back to school newsletter, but we wanted to let you know of this generous donation and how it will help with getting ready for school.
