School-wide Spring Service Learning Project
At Polo Road Elementary, we understand the power of partnering with our community and doing our part to give back and meet the demands of worthy causes. With that in mind, we're excited to let you know that we will be participating in our PAALS Spring Service Learning Project next week!
Palmetto Animal Assisted Life Services is the largest and most active service animal training group in our state. They help get animals ready to go into the world to assist the humans who need them. We are running a supply drive so that we help stock PAALS with all the goodies they need.
We would love it if you would please help us help them by sending in at least one item from the wish list below. Every little bit helps!
Below is the supply list, for your reference. Even if students bring in the "wrong" brand of food, we will donate it to PAALS anyway. I'm sure they'll have a way to get it to an animal in need. ;)
Thank you for your donations, both big and small!
