Greetings Families,
Though you wouldn't know it from the hot days last week, we are fully in FALL! I am currently collecting coat donations for students. If you have coats or warm clothing in good condition that your child has outgrown, feel free to drop it off at the main office. If you are in need of a coat or warm clothing for your child, please reach out to me at diana.johnson@sesd.org. For Spanish speaking families, please reach out to our outreach - Cecilia Jimenez-Soto - at cecilia.jimenezsoto@sesd.org.
