Winter Gear

I have many students who do not have winter coats, gloves or hats.  Please start sending in these items everyday.  If you have “old” coats, gloves or hats please send them in so I can give them to students who need them. Thank YOU!

Habitat for Humanity

Whitmore students will begin donating coins to donate to Habitat for Humanity who has plans to build 6 homes in Dearborn for struggling families.  Our class is very excited about this project and many have volunteered their dads to help build the houses (I had no idea the talented fathers we had!:).

We will make posters this week and work with this project all year long.

If you would like to volunteer with Mr. Cares he needs help with the broadcast team on Mondays from 8:15-9:30 a.m and during our class time on Wednesdays 1-1:45 p.m.  please contact me.
