Food Drive

The 5th grade is coordinating the Spring Food Drive; the dates of the drive are April 6th-30th . Their collection goal is 2012 items. These items will be given to the Neighborhood House in Middletown and the Whatcoat Social Service Agency in Dover. If we make our goal we can earn a school wide dress down day for Friday, May 4th. Come admire their banner in the front foyer! They will collect cans and boxes from each class on Monday April 30th. Here are suggested donations, but all non-perishables are welcome.

Please check expiration dates and avoid food in glass jars. Also please note that we are not accepting Ramen Noodles. We have explained to the students that Ramen is high in sodium and low in nutritional value. Thank you for helping our young people continue to understand the importance of helping those in need. 

Sincerely,

The Class of 2015
