Cherokee Families,
It is that time of the year when we as a community are reaching out to help those less fortunate in the Ozarks. In conjunction with the Ozarks Food Harvest we are collecting non-perishable food items the week of Sept. 16 - 20.
Cherokee has been the winner of the Food Fight the last two years, but truly our community is the real winner!
Thank you all so much for instilling and modeling the love of giving and sharing. We have so much to be thankful for, but even within our own school and city there are so many without basic needs.
The Cherokee community never fails to surprise me in how giving you all are. Thank you!!
Another project we are participating in until Oct. 4th is the Sole Food Project. As a part of Sole Food Project we are collecting the following types of shoes: tennis, high heels, work shoes, sandals, flip-flops, etc. Please no shoes with holes. We have a box outside the main office to collect these until Oct. 4.
It was great to see so many of you last night! Our parking lot was full from 5 p.m. to almost 7 p.m. It is so great to have you all visit and be involved.
I am blessed to be a member of the Cherokee community.
As always, please don't hesitate to contact us at any time - 523-7210, @MrPowersCMS or @CherokeeSPS, wtpowers@spsmail.org, or via Remind101 by texting @principalp to 858-914-4324.
Have a great weekend and Go Indians!
