🩸 **Blood Drive – November 13th, 8:00 AM–12:00 PM** 🩸
We are proud to host a community **Blood Drive on Wednesday, November 13th from 8:00 AM to 12:00 PM** right here at our school! Donating blood is one of the simplest yet most powerful ways to help others—it can truly save lives.
Every donation can help up to **three people** in need. Blood donations support:
* **Accident victims** and trauma patients who need blood during emergencies
* **Cancer patients** receiving chemotherapy treatments
* **Children and adults** undergoing surgeries or living with blood disorders
Your generous donation can make all the difference for someone’s parent, child, or friend. We invite families, staff, and community members to take part in this life-saving event.
Let’s come together and make an impact—because when we give blood, we give hope. 💖
For more information or please contact the school office.

🎃🍬 Candy Challenge Champions! 🍬🎃
Our Trunk or Treat Candy Challenge was a sweet success! Each class competed to donate the most pounds of candy — and it was a close race until the very end! 🍭 In the end, Ms. French’s class pulled ahead and took the win! Their victory earned them the honor of choosing our STEM teacher, Mr. Garcia’s new hair color… and let’s just say blue never looked so good! 💙
Huge thanks to everyone who donated and made this year’s Trunk or Treat extra fun and festive! 👻✨
