Your Help Is Needed!
We have over 450 students who visit the library each week! Although our MakerSpace has some materials, MakerSpaces exist with help from families. To maintain our maker space, we will need help from you over the school year. Please collect recycling materials from the list below and you can send the recycling materials to school in your child's backpack or drop off items in the main office at Vogel.
We can use more craft materials and other items found around your home. If you would like to help please look through the list at the bottom of this page and start collecting these items as well.
Remember: any donations can be sent in with your child and/or dropped off in the main office at any time during the school year. Please be sure all donations are clean. This list will be updated regularly so please continue to check back. Your help is very much needed and appreciated!
