For many years we have been collecting extra Halloween candy and sending it to the troops through an organization called Boatsie’s Boxes. This year we are changing it up a bit. What this means to you is that each classroom will be collecting goods that will be put into individual stockings (16”-19”) to be sent overseas to service troops that are serving our country. We will begin collecting NOW. All items will get shipped November 5th and students will be filling them Friday, November 2nd. If you would like to donate more, feel free and you can still send in extra Halloween candy. You can also make a cash donation in the office to help purchase the stockings if you’d like. Thanks in advance and we think this will make a great addition to the program we do in the spring for the veterans! Pls. see below your child’s grade level and items to be donated.
