Acts of Service: Host Our Food Pantry
We're excited to launch a food pantry to provide Lufkin students and their families with essential, high-need items — and we need your help to keep it stocked! We hope to collaborate with families, community members, and local groups to make this possible.
Volunteer Opportunity: Each month, we're looking for a volunteer to host a food drive. As a host, you'll collect items from our Needs List, either on your own or by engaging your network (neighborhood, workplace, church, or other groups). To find out more, visit our signup page or contact Lufkin PTA VP Mandy MacNaughton (LufkinPTAVicePresident@gmail.com).
DIY Divas & Painting Pros: Join Our Sidewalk Bolts Team
If you've got a steady hand, some artistic flair, or just a lot of school spirit, join our painting crew! Help paint the Lightning Bolt Walk of Fame. Painting usually takes place after school hours or on weekends. If you're interested, contact PTA Secretary Julie Chase: LufkinPTAsecretary@gmail.com.
Thank You, Cafeteria Crew!
Many thanks to the volunteers who joined the Cafeteria Crew on Thursday! Your lunch coverage made a real difference — our teachers were very grateful for the gift of a free period this week. Our next Cafeteria Crew date is September 26; we have some open slots for that date and others later this year. Thanks in advance for filling this important need! Signup: bit.ly/cafcrew
