August Service Project

August “1st Priorities” Service Project
School Clothing Drive

Beginning this year all Metro. students are required to wear “standard school attire”, which consists of white or navy blue collared shirts (or turtlenecks) and pants, shorts, capris , skorts, jumpers or skirts in black, blue or any shade of khaki. Every Metro. school is required to develop a clothes closet for indigent families and families that come in from other districts and need help getting started.

There are several ways to help with this service project:

• Donate used or new clothing – Shop at consignment sales, Dollar Market (on Nolensville Rd. across from Tusculum Elem.) or Wal-Mart, or any other clothing store. You can put these clothes in the bin in the foyer at church by August 12th.

and/ or

• Donate gift cards, or cash – Principals in Metro. have been given vouchers to use to buy clothes at certain stores at a discounted rate, so we would be able to make better use of our money by donating cash. There will be an envelope on the clipboard in class during the next few weeks if you wish to donate cash or gift cards. Please turn in money by August 12th.

Questions??? Contact Candie Bowen at 500-5738 or candiebowen@yahoo.com

Thank You for participating in
our August service project!!!
