We are excited to kick off our Fall Food Drive September 28 – October 9! Over these 10 days, we have an opportunity to come together as a school and make a meaningful difference for families in our community during the Thanksgiving and holiday season.
Each day will feature a special theme and suggested donation items to keep the drive fun and help us collect a variety of needed foods. Students do NOT have to bring only the featured item for that day; any unopened, non-perishable food donation is welcome throughout the entire drive!
Warrior Council Members will be picking up items throughout the drive.

PRIZES, COMPETITION & PIZZA!
There will be special prizes and awards throughout the event, so encourage students to participate throughout all 10 days!
HOMEROOM CHALLENGE: The homeroom with the highest average number of donations per student will earn a PIZZA PARTY! Using the donation-to-student ratio gives every homeroom, regardless of size, a chance to win.
MONETARY DONATIONS COUNT TOO! We will also accept monetary donations, with every $1 donated counting as ONE donated item toward the competition. This gives students, families, and community members another easy way to support the drive.
OUR EXTENDED WARRIOR NATION CAN HELP!
We want our families, community members, and supporters involved too! Community donations may be dropped off at Office A during the food drive. Our goal goes beyond collecting food. This is an opportunity to teach our students about service, generosity, kindness, and taking care of the community around us.
