Community Project Fair
Our Community Project Fair will take place on Saturday, January 24, from 4:30 until 6:30 pm.. During this event, any 8th grader hosting a donation drive for their Community Project has a booth to collect the requested items and then bring them to the partner organization. This is a HUGE deal for our 8th graders. They have been working hard since November, researching needs in their community and planning their project. This is a great opportunity for staff to support our 8th graders! Please see the list below of items students are collecting, and stop by on Saturday to make a donation! (If you want to make a donation and you know Saturday does not work for you, you can drop off your donations to Ms. Daniels' office (C203).
