  • Angel Tree 2023

    Again this year we will be providing support for some of our families for the holiday season -- But we need your help!  Please review the available slots on the Sign-Up Genius. We request the items to be brought in by Dec. 12th!  This will give us time to get them distributed to the families. Items should be new and in a gift bag with the sign up genius number on the tag (1A-1).  We appreciate our school community for always assisting our families. Happy Holidays and Thank you! https://www.signupgenius.com/go/10C054BABAB2AA7FC1-46170315-angel#/
