Donations Needed

As the colder months begin, Franklin and Randall are looking for donations of new or gently used thick winter gloves or mittens. While we love having a stash of thin gloves for emergencies, our students really need the thicker pairs to keep them warm and dry during our snowy recess months.  Franklin is also looking for water bottles. Our kiddos use these all throughout the day (especially during PE) as well as on field trips. New or used, we'll take both, there is no scratch that a fun sticker can't cover up! Bring donations to the main office. For Franklin, notify office staff that the items are for Maria Loy. For Randall, notify office staff that the items are for Katie Larsen-Klodd.
