Help a child buy a book or two from the book fair this week
The book fair is a very exciting time for elementary students. Every year there are students that are unable to get books because this extra expense is just not in every family’s budget. If you would like to donate $6-$10 to buy a book or two for some kids that would otherwise be unable to pick one out, just follow this link:

The school social worker or counselor, with help from the classroom teachers, will help discreetly identify students that would love to pick out a book at this years book fair.

boys clothing sizes 5/6, 6/7, 7/8, 8/10 (pants & underwear)
Our school closet has a very low inventory when it comes to little boys clothing sizes 5-10. We could use gently used or new pants (kids seem to typically prefer elastic waist joggers/sweatpants, athletic pants.) but we are also receptive to jeans as well for when the weather gets cooler. We can also use new underwear in the same sizes. These clothes are utilized if a child has an accident, gets sick or has a spill at lunch.
grocery gift card
Moving into an empty house with an awesome fresh new start, this family was displaced suddenly and the cause was out of their control. I would love if our community could help fulfill this need as the family has a lot of items to replace as they move into another house. Since every family has their own food/household preferences, it is my desire to collect some gift cards so the family can pick out the items that they will use in their day to day meal preparations.
