Second grade is heading a school-wide collection of nonperishable items for the St. Edward food pantry during Lent. The St. Edward food pantry serves not only our own church community, but also Sacred Heart Center and Bainbridge Community Ministry, and they are very much in need of donations this time of year. We are asking for everyone to bring in two items each Tuesday (or just one if that’s easier!). Students will walk their items over and place them outside of the food pantry each week as we attend Mass. At this time, we are requesting the following items:

February 27: RICE & DRIED BEANS
March 5: CEREAL & BOXED MILK
March 12: COOKING OIL, TORTILLAS, OR A PACKAGED SWEET TREAT
March 19: PEANUT BUTTER & JELLY
March 26: TOOTBRUSHES & TOOTHPASTE, OR A SALTY SNACK

Of course this is optional, but very much appreciated! Thank you for serving our community!

SEES will celebrate Read Across America Week March 5 through March 8. See Ms. Hingley’s Letter to Parents for more details about our fun reading incentive activities. Any questions, please contact Nicole Hingley at [email protected].
