All students who ride a bus to school must have coats, caps, mittens/gloves, and appropriate shoes/boots. This is a safety issue now that the weather is getting cold. Although the buses are warmed and ready when students board them, the cool down quickly when doors open, and if a bus should ever stall, we want the students to remain safe and comfortable.

We will officially have our Kickoff for this new fundraising opportunity for our school in January, but felt we would share before the holiday shopping season!

Sox for Kids is a charitable organization that collects funds to take eligible children Christmas shopping. Manvel has about 40 children that participate. Please consider donating money to this worthy cause.You can help meet the needs of our children by...
