Hi! I am reaching out to request support for our students by asking for the donation of a new or used heavy-duty coat rack. With the change of seasons, we try to keep coats available for students who do not have one.  

A sturdy coat rack would make a tremendous difference by helping us keep items off the floor, reducing clutter, and creating a more welcoming environment for our students. 

I have a 12 year old boy in need of shirts, pants and hoodies. His size is Adult Small. 

We need boys and girls underwear and unisex pants in sizes 4-14 for students in grades Pre K - 5th Grade.

Our 5-6 graders are going to Chicago.  This  is an arts, architecture and science tour.  We're trying to sponsor students of parents who have multiple students in the same grade. We're trying to pay for one of the students, while the parent pays for the other.

We have 5 families in this position. So, we need to raise funds for at least 5 kiddos.

The price per child is $1,099

A teenage high school student is in need of clothes due to her pregnancy. Her parent can not afford to purchase the student clothes due to their financial situation, as the family is homeless.

The parent and student would be grateful for any assistance. Site 14

Here at TCSS Academy our goal is to ensure that every student attend school regularly to succeed; as we know that when a student misses school too much, it can cause them to fall behind academically. While enrolled at TCSS Academy, students will have the opportunity to earn TCSS Academy Bucks (as an incentive) each day present in the building. If a student has ZERO absences on the last date of placement in the alternative program, then the student will be able to “cash out” bucks for items in our Academy Store.
Items may include: fidgets/sensory items, stress balls, rubik's cube, gel pens, mini games, mini sketch pads and notebooks, colored pencils, markers, water bottles (clear), $10.00 fast food gift cards (Chick Fil-A), mini hand sanitizer, mini puzzles or brain teasers, mini keychains.
