Back-to-School Pantries Open
Back-to-school pantries are opening for the 2018/2019 school year this week. All of the middle and high schools we serve have a banner letting students know that if they are hungry, there is a food pantry. If you know of a student in need, please let a teacher or staff member know so no child goes hungry.
