The Annual Clothing Re-sale Week is our reuse/reduce/recycle
Our school will begin accepting gently worn children's clothing donations starting on Wednesday, October 17th. Parents are invited to drop off their donation of what we hope will be 5 or more items to be resold at the event. All items must be clean and in good condition with sizes clearly marked, Of course, cash donations are warmly accepted All contributions will go directly to the school's garden fund. The pop-up re-sale will be organized and opened Monday morning October 22nd in the parents' lounge for one week. We will then close that Friday, October 26th when aftercare is complete for the day, hopefully giving families time to bring things in, browse, and shop all week as new things came in every day. Last year we raised $930.00. We would love to top that this year :) Come on y'all, You know you all have stuff, bring it!
