This is a great honor and a great opportunity for us to do some mass clean ups, upgrades, etc.. around the school, the preschool and the gymnasium. Comcast will send a crew of Comcast volunteers to assist us in completely identified projects and Comcast graciously pays for all the supplies.   They need our help, though. They ask that our parents and students volunteer their time and talent on that day as well. As a bonus, they will give us a grant based on the number of volunteers that show up.  The funding can be between $10 - $20 per volunteer.  The more volunteers, including children, grandparents, uncles, aunts, neighbors, etc., the more funding for the school.
