Giving Tree Project

 
With fall on its way and winter right around the corner, the school community is gearing up for the McGraw Giving Tree Project.  The McGraw Giving Tree Project was started many years ago by Caroline Gates to provide holiday presents for families in need, in our district.  Last year the district staff and faculty made the homes of 39 families and over one hundred of our children a little happier.  The list of families is generated by nominations which are given to the committee.  The nurse from the building will contact those families nominated to get size and ages of the school children in the home.  The tags with sizes and ages only are selected by the staff and faculty and then the gifts are bagged and tagged.   If you know of a family that would benefit from this program, please contact Lissa Eckstrom in the high school at 836-4777 or Heather Nauseef in the Elementary school at 836-3652. The staff and faculty look forward to making the holidays a little merrier for our students.
