Used Uniforms Needed!
If your scholar has out-grown their uniform and you would like to donate them to the school, we are collecting gently used uniform pieces for girls and boys - all sizes. If enough pieces are collected at the end of the school year, we will have a "gently used uniform sale" at the beginning of the school year.
Please drop off clean, gently used uniform pieces that you no longer need to Ms. Smith. Thank you!
