EMERGENCY COMFORT KITS

Just a reminder!  

The PTA is gathering emergency comfort kits for each classroom.  These kits are in place just in case of emergency situations.  Parents, please send a gallon size ziploc bag with your child that includes the following:  A water or juice, snacks (such as granola bar, fruit snack, or crackers - ALL SNACKS MUST BE NUT FREE..PLEASE READ LABELS) a note and/or picture of your family along with a travel size game.  We are asking parents to please send individual kits for your child no later than September 1st.  Thank you for your help!  

If you would like to donate extra kits to the school for the families that are unable to provide one for their child, we would greatly appreciate your generosity.  Those extra kits may be dropped off at the office.
