Batteries for Puerto Rico!

Batteries for Puerto Rico will begin today!

Many months after the devastation caused by Hurricane Maria, Puerto Rico is still in crisis! Over 60% of the population has no power. It is estimated that it will take months to restore the power grid in the entire Island. Let’s help! Our school will be having a battery drive starting today and ending Wednesday, December 6th. These batteries will help operate flashlights, lanterns, blood pressure machines, blood sugar monitors, radios, and other battery operated resources. *Most needed battery sizes are C and D.

The class that donates the most batteries will win a donut breakfast! Please have all batteries turned in to the box outside the office labeled “Batteries for Puerto Rico.”  Place batteries in a bag labeled with the child’s name and teacher.

Thank you!!!
