Each year Caddo Mills ISD participates in 212 Day. This year at Lee Elementary we are going to give back to two very important groups, our Caddo Mills Senior Citizens and our Healthcare Workers.

Let's show our senior citizens and healthcare workers how much we care. Our senior citizens have made a strong foundation for us in Caddo Mills. We value the commitment to excellence from our healthcare workers and appreciate their dedication through the pandemic.

We will be collecting the items to distribute to our senior citizens and healthcare workers. Our goal is to make a gift basket full of snacks, treats and essentials for each department at Hunt Regional and every senior citizen that drives through our campus on Friday, February 12 at 10am.

We are starting the Kids Heart Challenge! It will run February 1st through the 19th. Our students will learn about this amazing program. We will be working on our jump rope skills during class and participating in fun activities to keep our hearts strong and healthy. If your child has collected donation money, place the donation in a sealed bag/envelope, labeled with their name and have them turn it into their home room teacher. The students will also be awarded different prizes, depending on the amount they raise. As a bonus, I will be rewarding the student who raises the most with a Chick-Fil-a lunch and a pizza party to the classroom who raises the most. Thank you for supporting this cause along with us. On Friday, February 5, wear red to support healthy heart awareness.
