The Grade School, Jr. High, and High School are going to be collecting items to send to a disaster relief team that will be going to Georgia. This is to help the families that were affected by the hurricane. Here is a list of items that we are looking to send:
1. Non perishable food items
2. Hygiene Items
3. Blankets
4. Diapers
5. New Clothing
Some families lost everything. Any of these would really help these families in need. The relief team will be leaving this weekend. All items should be turned in by Friday for us to send with them. Thank you so much.
