SAMUEL'S HOUSE DONATIONS/FOOD DRIVE
We will be accepting monetary donations to purchase a wish list item for every child at Samuel's House. This has been an annual tradition at Sigsbee since we opened in 2010. Most of the children have asked for either a bike or kindle. Additional items (toys, clothing, books) may be donated as well.
Please do NOT wrap any gifts. All gifts should be new. Please put any donations in an envelope with your child's name on it and "Samuel's House donation" written across the front. You may also bring cash or checks (made out to SCS) to the office. Donations are due Monday. We will be delivering gifts on Wednesday. Thank you for your generosity.
FOOD DRIVE FOR FAMILIES
We will be sponsoring several families in need during this holiday season, both from Sigsbee and Key West High School. We are in need of non-perishable food items that are easy to prepare. We have several canned items, peanut butter and Ramen noodles already so please consider: nuts, pastas, tuna, rice, beans, cereals, granola bars, healthy snacks. Items may be brought to classrooms starting Friday. You may also make a monetary donation and have the SCS staff purchase the items for you. Please send in any donations in a clearly marked envelope.
HOLIDAY EXTRAVAGANZA
On Wednesday, December 20th, we will host our holiday extravaganza from 5:00-7:00 PM. This will include a holiday bazaar with several vendors, cocoas and caroling with Mr. Weinstein and a Conch Tour Train ride for Sigsbee students and family members.
