Hundreds of backpacks and thousands of notebooks, folders, crayons, pencils and more were collected during the month of August. Today we helped deliver all these school supplies needed by children of the city schools.



A big thank you to our collecting sponsors--Bassett Furniture, Sylvan Learning Centers, Vision Automotive Group, Advantage Federal Credit Union, Moes Southwest Grill, and Joettes Gifts.



Families wishing to receive supplies from Operation Backpack can still call the district's office at 324-9999. Leave your name and number and they'll contact you.
