Holiday Baskets

There’s one more day left in the Student Government Holiday Dinner Basket Drive!  One more chance to bring in those last few items to your first hour’s basket.  On Friday morning we finalize decorating the baskets and seeing which class has the best, brightest, most amazing holiday gift basket!

Then Student Government loads up all the wonderful baskets and takes them to the Salvation Army for distributing.  We have heard that our baskets are highly anticipated and appreciated!

We still very much need donations for the gift cards for the families to purchase their turkeys/hams, etc.  If every student brought in $1 we could provide a $20 gift card for each of the 10 baskets.

Donations are tax deductible, and if you would like to donate more than $1, a receipt can be provided by Mrs. Claflin at the front office.
