SOUPER-Bowl of Caring is coming! Feb 6-10th week.
The donation area will be located in the Cafeteria. Each morning of SOUPER-Bowl week, we will announce which "team" has the most food items collected so far. We will announce the food drive "winner' the day after the actual Super Bowl game.
With the help of our amazing PTO, all donations will go to local food pantries that typically run low with their inventory this time of year. Our students will get an opportunity to learn about local ways our community supports the underserved and participate in a fun way to help!
