Food Pantry The food pantry cabinet is available to support students and families who may be experiencing food insecurity. It is not intended to be used as a snack cabinet or for casual use between classes. The items in the pantry are provided through the generosity of donors and community members to help those facing a genuine need. Please be respectful of this resource so it remains available for students and families who depend on it. Thank you for helping us care for one another and support those in our school community who need it most.
Card If any student would like to sign a card for Bill Richter's family, stop in Mrs. Scott's room and sign one of the cards on the table by the door.
