Thank you to all who helped support PV students as we begin another exciting school year! We delivered the supplies to 17 schools in our district!

We collected:

432 boxes of crayons

453 glue sticks

264 pairs of scissors

219 rulers

2794 pencils

and lots more!

We want to make sure all students have the materials they need to learn and be successful this year. Teachers and staff are working hard to adapt to online learning and create packets of materials and supplies for students to use at home. These supplies will help PV students learn and grow this year! Thank you for your support of PV students!

We will continue to collect supplies to be distributed to schools. If you or your organization would like to help with this, please email [email protected]!
