In the past few years, John Knox has steadily increased our presence at Lake Forest Elementary with mentoring and providing monthly lunch duty for the teachers to name a few. JK has generously and faithfully gifted time, talents and material goods to Lake Forest in the form of winter wear and school supplies.
As you have heard, Lake Forest is a wonderful school with a cheerful and positive attitude towards students, faculty and education in general. It is a very diverse school and, therefore, the students have many needs. You, at John Knox, have met each and every challenge.
As in years past, we have been asked to help supply reward items for the school's testing weeks in April. You have never failed to come through with all they need and more! The following is a list of needs:
- Small gift cards (5 Below, Walmart, fast food restaurants)
- Stuffed animals
- Fidgets or other sensory toys
- Small sports items (balls, jump ropes, etc.)
- Arts and crafts materials
As usual, these items can be deposited in the large, white box outside the narthex. Thank you all, in advance, for the overwhelming response you always give to these requests. Lake Forest loves John Knox and deeply appreciates all you do for them!
