The Student Senate is holding a supply drive to help restock the shelves of our Essential Needs Pantry for families in our community.  We’re looking for the basics that make a big difference: unopened toiletries, hygiene products, and non-perishable food items. What might feel like a small donation to you is a huge relief for a neighbor in need.  Drop off your donations to either Mr. Jablonski in Room 208, or Mr. Moglia in Room 188.  As an added bonus, each item you donate earns you a raffle ticket to our drawing on May 18th!  We will be giving out several gift cards, including Amazon, Starbucks, and other local restaurants!  Let’s show up for each other and ensure no one goes without the essentials.
