After wrapping up Parent-Teacher Conferences, it became clear just how much of a need there is within our school community. We have decided to bring back our Thanksgiving Food Drive this year because we believe it will make a tremendous difference for some of our students and families during the holiday season.
Our goal is to put together 35 Thanksgiving baskets to help families enjoy a Thanksgiving meal together. Whether you are able to donate a few items, contribute toward a basket, or sponsor an entire family, every little bit makes a difference!
We will collect items starting November 10th through November 20th. Our goal is 35 Thanksgiving Baskets. Items/Baskets can be dropped off at Odin Public School in the Front Office any day from 8:00 AM–3:30 PM.
We know times can be tough, and sometimes a little extra help can go a long way. Let’s come together as a community and make sure our families feel supported this Thanksgiving.
Any questions please reach out to Abby Sloat (asloat@odinpublicschools.org or 618-740-4183)
