Mrs. George and Ms. Schelke’s (Mrs. Richard’s) PreK 4/5 preschool class would like to do a Community Service project for our upcoming field trip on May 28th, 2024. They will be going to Saving Grace Miniature Horse Rescue (https://www.sgminihorserescue.com/). The preschool class would like to take some items that are on their wish list with them to donate to their rescue. This will give the kids experience in giving instead of receiving, the kids are very excited about taking items down to donate to help out with the care of the horses. This field trip will help them learn about how to care for and help an animal in need. If you would like to help our little ones out by donating you may drop off items in the Elementary or High school office.
Here are some of the items on Saving Grace’s wish list:
