Our MS chesed committee will have boxes in the three schools through this week for the chametz drive. To help facilitate the preparations for Pesach, all non-Passover food items can be dropped at school and these items will go to organizations for the needy in Dallas. Please send your chametz items in a bag with your child and teachers will direct them to the collection points. If you have a large amount of items, please contact Andi Bonner to make delivery arrangements.
WE NEED YOUR OLD TOWELS
Do you have any old bath or beach towels? Morah Lindsey is in need of towels for upcoming art projects. Please drop off donations at the art room in the ECC.

Our school is proud to partner with the American Heart Association and Jump Rope For Heart!
Students have raised over $1,200 for the American Heart Association.
