Classroom Donations

Hi Families, 

For some upcoming projects, we are looking for donations of magazines/flyers/pamphlets that have pictures of nature. Ideally, the paper would be glossy, but we will take all donations. 

You can send them in with your child, or if you have a larger donation, send us an email and we'll make arrangements.

Thank you!
Ms.Thomas and Ms.Romanko
