School Supply Drive for MLK!

Last week the Community Service Board kick started the year with the beginning of our school supply drive for Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary School. The goal of the drive is to gather as many school necessities (folders, binders, notebooks, pencils, pens, etc.) so that the children at MLK may have the necessary tools to further their learning experience. Anyone who has volunteered at the after school program will recognize how much these items would help the kids, and it is our goal to make sure that no child is restricted from learning effectively because he/she does not have the necessary supplies.

We hope that everyone takes the time to clean out their desks to look for that extra notebook that you may have bought but never used or spends an extra dollar in the school bookstore to buy an extra packet of pencils. Little contributions like these can make a huge difference if everyone takes a few minutes out of their day to think of others. We hope to get as many contributions as possible. Collection boxes are in the CS Office and the Upper School Office.

Thank you so much for all of your help!!!
