So many thank you's are in order this week in recognition of the incredible generosity we have seen shared.
Let's start with our Annual Coat Drive - thank you Ms. Susanne for organizing this, and thanks to SO many of our Mill Falls Families and Friends who brought in over 90 coats(!), 40 hats, 8 pairs of boots and many more mittens and scarves. We are proud to share this incredible load of kindness with Families Transition (FIT), who will in turn share all of these winter items with the families they serve. All clothing was picked up by FIT this afternoon in time for their upcoming holiday party.
We also want to send a HUGE shout out to the many talented cooks who provided such a wonderful luncheon for staff on Wednesday - our Early Release / Professional Development Day. This month, Hospitality Committee Coordinator, Hind Bashier, created a menu to reflect the upcoming all-school continent study of Europe. She put out a call for dishes, and our families created an incredible meal! Special thanks to Hind, Molly, Meghan, Intisar, Lauren, Lamis, Hala and Julie for providing so many delicious dishes! Yum!!!! Stay tuned for information from your children and their teachers about the all-school continent study!
We also want to send a special thanks to Ms. Laura B, Ms. Laura W and Ms. Devon for staffing our Annual Movie Night. We had over 60 children with us that evening here at school to enjoy a movie and snack on popcorn donated by Mark Adam at Cinemagic in Hooksett.
So many items have been coming in from Amazon since we published our
Wish List. Thank you, thank you, thank you, for taking the time to go through the list and select items requested by staff! To learn more about this,

We also want to acknowledge an MFCS family who gave an anonymous gift filled with kindness and love to those in our school community who are food insecure. For the 2nd year in a row, this family, who wishes to remain anonymous, has provided individual Hannaford gift cards to each of those who receive food from our Food Pantry..

Granite State Apparel
for working together this year.
