STAFFORD, VA – Students at Anthony Burns Elementary, Garrisonville Elementary, and Rodney E. Thompson Middle schools are collecting food and supplies to send to North Carolina to contribute to rebuilding efforts after Hurricane Florence.
Anthony Burns Elementary School Student Council Association hosted the first community service day of the school year recently. Staff and students who brought in a can of food or water wore a hat for the entire school day. More than half of the school participated!
Garrisonville Elementary School students are collecting school supplies to send to schools and students. Donation boxes in the school are filling up with items that North Carolina students will need. Students at Rodney E. Thompson Middle School are collecting new and gently used books to donate to school libraries damaged in the hurricane. They are also collecting monetary donations to help schools purchase what they need after the devastation.
These acts of kindness are a reflection of the SCPS mission to inspire and empower all learners to thrive.
