Gift of the Season Gift Drop-Off

The PTO would like to remind you and your student to bring your gift donation to school this week to support the 18 families we are sponsoring through HCS Family Services.

Prior to break, students had the opportunity to select a yellow gift tag for a specific individual in need this holiday season. The card contained details for a specific wishlist item. We are collecting these gift items this week, Tuesday - Friday. Students can drop off the gift, with the yellow card attached, in the boxes at grade level entrances, or in the office.

Please include your yellow gift tag with your gift so they can be matched with the correct family. Remember, gifts must be new and unwrapped. Please include a gift receipt when possible. The suggested gift amount is up to $50. All gifts are due this Friday, December 6th so they can be distributed in time for the holidays.

If your student did not select a gift card, but your family would like to participate in the gift drive, please contact margiejeffords@yahoo.com.

Thank you for supporting families in need this holiday season!

CHMS PTO is excited to once again support HCS Family Services through their Holiday Gift Drive. This holiday season, CHMS is sponsoring 14 families in need.

On Tuesday and Wednesday of this week, students will have the opportunity, during their lunch period, to select a yellow gift tag with details for a specific individual or family and their wishlist item.

Please talk with your student about your family's participation in our holiday gift drive. It is an optional opportunity for families to give to those in need and brighten a family's holiday season.

We will be collecting the wish list items the week after Thanksgiving, December 2nd - 6th.

Please KEEP and include the yellow gift tag with the returned gift when it is dropped off at school. This allows us to match the gifts with the intended recipient.

Suggested gift amount is $30-50. Gifts must be new, unwrapped and with a gift receipt, when possible.
