Christmas "Stocking" stuffers

We will not be drawing names to exchange gifts between students, but each student has made a gift bag for stocking stuffer type items. Please feel free to send in items such as: pencils, erasers, stickers, travel size deodorant, dental floss, toothpaste, soap, toothbrushes, candy, highlighters, bouncy balls, playing cards, play-doh, nail polish for girls, books, activity books, chapstick, puzzles, games, Matchbox cars for boys, or anything you come across or can think of that our boys and girls might like.

Please send the items in by December 16th! We appreciate any and all donations!

We had a successful craft day today! We will be creating a few more projects after Thanksgiving, so if you can send in toilet paper or paper towel tubes, we would still greatly appreciate them.

Thank you so much to Katie's Mom, Joanna's Mom, and Brandon's Mom for helping us today. We couldn't have made our projects without their help.

Read, read, read over break to get caught up or to get ahead!

Have a safe and happy Thanksgiving. See you on the 30th!
