Collection
We are collecting
winter clothing no longer needed mittens, scarves,
blankets, coats or any other
appropriate winter items and will
donate them to a local organization
in need. Gently used and cleaned
items can be placed in the box under
“The Mitten Tree” in the hall for the
next couple of weeks outside of Mrs.
Dyson's class.
Thank you to all our wonderful
volunteers and contributors to our
school…we cannot do all the extra
special events without you!
