What an exciting week! Author Ben Clanton visited our school and brought stories to life!

We’ve heard from many families who want to help our community during this time of great need. This week's food pantry at our school was a huge success and we’re inspired by your generosity, thank you!

If you couldn't donate food but still want to help, a monetary donation makes a big difference. The Pantry can buy in bulk, get refrigerated items, and stretch every dollar even further.

If you would like to contribute, please visit the Food Pantry Donation Page.

This course will provide instruction on the basics of first aid. First aid is the immediate care that is given to someone with an illness or injury before a more advanced trainer arrives to take over. The course is divided into three parts: Medical Emergencies, Injury Emergencies, and Environmental Emergencies. Medical emergencies include appropriate care for heart attacks, stroke, diabetes, and seizure. Injury emergencies include care of breaks, sprains, bleeding, and burns. Environmental emergencies include care for temperature-related exposures, poisoning, and animal bites and stings. Upon completion of the course, all members will receive a certification card from the American Heart Association.
