Math Supply Drive
The School District is implementing a new math curriculum, Eureka Math, this year. Each classroom (K5-5th) needs some supplies to implement the curriculum. The district has asked the PTO to help facilitate the collection of the items for each school. The PTO donated items that were requested for immediate use, such as reams of card stock, plastic page protectors, individual whiteboards, and more.
Kindly consider donating materials to be used with the Eureka Math curriculum. Today, we have the sign-up genius lists for four classrooms; we will add more lists as they become available.
Click here to view available supply lists.
There will be boxes placed in each classroom to collect the supplies. On behalf of the district, we thank you for your contributions.
