College Spirit-Wear Drive
The PTO is collecting kid-sized college spirit wear for our sister school, Winton Hills Academy, which serves elementary-aged children in the largest low-income neighborhood in Cincinnati. The goal is to outfit all the students with college spirit wear in order to increase their familiarity with and interest in higher education; the teachers will use the spirit wear as a jumping-off point to talk about college and its benefits. Please send gently used t-shirts and sweatshirts with college logos on them to school with your students and ask them to place the items under the front stairs. Children's size 5T thru size 12 are especially needed. The collection ends March 3rd. Thank you!
