Food Bank Donations
The Student Council in connection with WE Day is taking on a local initiative to bring in food for the food bank. We encourage students to bring non-perishable food items to school and put them in the box in the front entrance/foyer. We will have a 2 week blitz of collecting as much food as we can for the food bank (we may extend it to the end of the month if needed). Let’s make a difference in our communities!
