Chorus students and families,
I realize it's a tough time of year financially for us all, as well as the fact that we still find ourselves amidst a struggling economy...
However, the Toys for Tots Foundation is far behind on collections in the Atlanta area this year. If you are able to contribute a new, unwrapped gift (1 or more:) for a small child, someone less fortunate will be most grateful this holiday season. It simply breaks my heart to think of any child going without something to open Christmas morning.
Drop new toys in the boxes provided in the Chorus Room before the last bell rings on Thursday, 12/22. I will be taking those we collect to a donation site at Toys 'R Us this Thursday following final exams.

A Very Happy Holidays To You All,
Mrs. Wilson

Those that are participating have already signed up and know who they are. Students and chaperones should report to the chorus room between 12:30-12:45pm.
