End of School Year Information
Food Drive for CBSD Food Pantry
On Thursday, June 18th we are hosting a food drive to support families in the Central Bucks community. For the past year, Barclay Elementary School has hosted a monthly Farmer’s Market during which families in need of a little help with food could shop for fresh produce and groceries. Because of the relationships established with wonderful organizations like Philabundance and Bucks County Opportunities Council (BCOC), the market was able to secure about 1,200 pounds in food donations per month which were then distributed to families at no cost.
In mid-March, the market organizers signed an agreement with Grocers Against Hunger, which enabled them to pick up surplus groceries from Giant locations in New Britain and Warrington a few times per week. They are now also receiving weekly shipments from Philabundance and BCOC and are picking up an additional weekly donation from Philabundance’s warehouse in Philadelphia. The Farmer's Market is now a drive up food distribution where families can pick up pre-bagged food items.
When this current crisis started, with all of this support, The Market was able to increase capacity to a weekly food distribution—as of this past Wednesday, thousands of pounds of food are distributed to over 200 families throughout the Central Bucks School District. That said, we are in need of additional food donations. Therefore, on Thursday, June 18th from 8am to 2pm we will be hosting a food drive at Titus. If you are able, please consider dropping off a non-perishable food donation at one of the tables and/or bins set up in the Titus bus loop. Feel free to drive up and drop off your donation on one of the tables/bins. The donations will then be sorted and brought into the building. Your donations will be distributed to families on Wednesdays. Any donations—even a can of soup, a box of rice, or a jar of peanut butter—are greatly appreciated and will supplement our donations of fresh produce from the wonderful organizations that were mentioned above. Priority items needy are pasta, pasta sauce, tuna, canned chicken, canned fruits and vegetables, canned beans, cereal, oatmeal, peanut butter, jelly, and diapers.
Student Item Retrieval and Yearbook Distribution
All student belongings and yearbooks have been distributed. If you did not pick up your student belongings and/or yearbook, please email Mrs. Pustay at bpustay@cbsd.org to set up a pick up time. We are hopeful that all items can be picked up, if they have not been already, as soon as possible.
End of the Year Survey
Please consider completing the End of the Year Parent Survey which you can access by clicking the link below. Your feedback and input is extremely valuable as we plan for the upcoming 2020-2021 school year.
Thank you for a wonderful first year at Titus and I look forward to many more.
Sincerely,
Mrs. Bridget M. Pustay
