Clothing Drive

Our National Honor Society Students are hosting a clothing drive through Feb. 11. Classes are accepting gently used clothing, and new underwear and socks, which will be donated to Clothes For Kids. We had tremendous participation during the canned food drive with over 2,000 items collected. Let's see what we can do with clothing!
