THANK YOU Temple Fire Department!
November Donations
At Kennedy-Powell we want to give our students an opportunity to serve others. We are collecting canned goods and dry goods to donate to the local food pantry, Churches Touching Lives for Christ. Our food drive will help hungry families in our community. Donations will be accepted from through November 10th. Students should bring canned goods or other non-perishable food items to their homerooms.
Volunteers
This includes chaperoning field trips, chaperoning after school programs, tutoring students, participating in fundraising activities or selling items on campus, and assisting in the classroom. Any activity that requires a parent to be involved with Temple ISD students during Temple ISD sponsored events for moderate amounts of time, even if it is a one-time event, must complete the application process.
The volunteer application process is not required for parents when they drop off school items to their child’s campus, eat lunch with only their child, or attend special programs as an audience member.
