School Supply Update!

 

This year, the Clinton PTA is launching a brand-new initiative to provide ALL classrooms with school supplies for the school year! That's right, there will be no need to shop for supplies over the summer and bring in materials on the first day of school. 

The goal is to buy all materials in bulk at discounted rates, which helps reduce the burden on families and teachers! The drive will also help provide paper goods and disposable items needed throughout the year. 

This program is only possible with donations from Clinton families, which is critical for the success of the effort for this year and beyond. The suggested amount is $35 per child, but you are welcome to donate as much or as little as you are able.
