As we approach the mid-year mark of the school year, many of our teachers have exhausted or are running low on the following items:
Hand Sanitizer
Clorox/Lysol Wipes
Kleenex
Paper Towel
Please consider donating some of these items to your child's classroom between now and the time we return from Winter Break. In addition, the office is running low on cases of bottled water. Since our water fountains are used as filling stations, we keep water in the office for students who may forget to bring a bottle from home. Thank you in advance for your assistance!


Reminders:
Brame will be closed December 20 - January 5 for Winter Break. They will reopen on January 8, 2024.

Each student will earn a Bobcat Buck for each item that they donate. Please share this information with family and friends. There is a donation box in the front lobby. Donations will be accepted until Thursday, December 21st. Thank you in advance for supporting these students as they work to help their school and community!
