Oliver Brown is teaming up with Flint Hills Bread Basket to collect food and funds to help families in our community experiencing food insecurity. FHBB is seeing more than 800 families per week and your help is needed!! Have your student bring in non-perishable items to the commons area and place in their grade level box. The grade level that brings in the most items wins a POPCORN PARTY!

 

This is a great way to teach kids about kindness, community, and helping others and together making a difference!

Items that are most needed at this time include:

Flour, sugar, pancake mix, pancake syrup, canned meat, canned fruit, sliced bread, dry or canned beans, shampoo/conditioner, body wash. razors

Our first movie night is quickly approaching on February 5th, and we need a headcount to help us plan. Entry is free, and pizza, snacks, and drinks will be available for purchase. The doors will open at 6:00 PM, and the movie will begin around 6:30 PM.

You are welcome to bring blankets and lawn chairs to get comfortable.

Please click the button below to RSVP so we know how many people will be attending, and one to vote on the movie.

We look forward to a fun night together!
