Alton Elementary School would like to think the employees at Alton Bank for stocking our Giving Tree Clothes Closet with tennis shoes for the school year! Jeffery Roberts and Sara Wheeler from Alton Bank even did the shopping for us and delivered the shoes to our front door! We also want to thank Braxton Reickeneker, Hannah Collins, and Mayali Barton from Shoe Sensation for helping choose the shoes and then cutting us a special deal that allowed for the purchase of several additional pairs of shoes! In all, Shoe Sensation came up with $600 worth of discounts!
We would also like to thank Mrs. Judy Wright for donating so much of her time to keep our closet up and running! Multiple students use the closet each day, and without Mrs. Judy, the closet would cease to exist! Mrs. Judy, please know you are so loved and appreciated!
If your organization is interested in donating to our Giving Tree fund, please contact one of our School Counselors. This fund helps supply needed clothing, shoes, hygiene products, and school supplies to students in our district each day. The funding for the closet relies completely on community donations.
School starts August 21st! We can't wait to see you. Check out our school calendar for more important dates!
