School Store Volunteers Needed:

Thursdays: 3-5 kids welcome from 8:00-8:25am
The school store sells little pencils, erasers, fun little school items for kids to purchase - prices range from $0.10 - $2.00, so kids can easily afford to buy something even with a little bit of pocket change. It is located at the end of the main hallway, adjacent to the 2nd grade hallway.
EOG Proctors Needed:

Donations Needed:
Per Ms. Rice, CCR teacher, I teach a student who requires a lot of support who does not own many books. If any of you have any Dr. Seuss books (or similar early readers) you no longer want, please consider dropping them off in my classroom (room 502). I will give them to this young man. I do appreciate your support. I'll also be more than happy to take any McDonald-type toys you no longer want as well.
Clothes- The front office is in need of clothes to give out to students when there is an accident at school and parents are not able to come in and bring clean clothes. Donations of the following items for both boys and girls would be appreciated and can be dropped off at the front office:
Flip Flops- boys and girls all sizes
Underwear- sizes S, M, L
Elastic Band pants and shorts- S, M, L
