Parents, please take a moment to check out the other amazing charities too— every bit of support helps make a difference!

Donation jars will be in your students' classrooms through November 21st.  

It's time for our annual Halloweencandygive back! Your kids' teeth and our troops thank you in advance for your generosity.

 Shout out to Dr. Eric Dixon's dental practice for donating $1/pound of candy collected plus $500 to the top earning school in our district.

Love this idea? Help us out by volunteering for 30 minutes before school -- we still have a couple of spots to fill.
