Each holiday season, the SATEC community comes together to give back in meaningful ways. This year, we are excited to continue our tradition of hosting a food drive to support Operation Happiness. We invite families to contribute non-perishable food items, which students can bring to school and leave in collection areas designated by grade level.

Operation Happiness is a community initiative run by dedicated volunteers and relies on the generosity of our community. Each year, more than 300 volunteers join together to provide baskets of food during the holidays to over 1,100 families throughout Franklin and Grand Isle Counties (fgiunitedway.org).

Thanks to your generosity, SATEC families have proudly donated over 7,000 items through this effort. Your support truly makes a difference. Thank you for helping us spread joy this season!
