Thank you so much for supporting Blue Mountain Elementary this year!

Please take a moment to put your student's name in their cold weather items - coats, jackets, hats, gloves, etc. We can quickly and easily reunite items with students if their name is written in there somewhere. It really does make a difference. We are entering the months where our Lost & Found grows by the day!

Please come in any time to see if your missing items are in the shelves or on the hangers!
