Food Drive Reminder

The middle school Ambassadors are organizing a food drive! This week, classrooms are competing to fill a “Classroom Easter Bag” with items for the food shelf. We are hoping to collect items to create complete meals such as: spaghetti dinner with noodles, sauce, and spice packets or breakfast with pancake mix, syrup, and Sunny D, etc. The classroom that collects the most items will be rewarded with a Root Beer Float Party! The last day for collection will be Friday, April 10.
