Holidays for Haiti

Sponsorships Open November 18-22

 

 

 

Don't miss the 7th Annual Holidays for Haiti, where we bring holiday cheer to over 350 Haitian orphans and students at Danita's Children Orphanage and School. Let’s come together as a community to spread holiday cheer to less fortunate children in a war-torn country.

 

Sponsor a Student(s) or Make a Donation

 

This year's event will be held virtually and at drop off and pickup times during November 18th-22nd. Each $25 donation will cover the cost of holiday gifts for a Haitian student, with extra funds going to Danita’s Children’s Malnutrition and Medical Center. Please visit the Holidays for Haiti page to learn more.

'Tis the Season

to Advocate for the Riverside Renovation

 

 

As the town’s budget process gets underway, and the renovation project gains momentum, engagement and advocacy from the school community will become increasingly important. In the coming months, elected officials will be making critical decisions that will determine the scope and timing of the renovation project. 

 

Making sure these decisions align with our own priorities and needs is our responsibility as a community and can be achieved by using our voices to communicate what’s important to us. For additional information on how and when our community will come together to advocate for this project in the coming months, see the Renovation webpage.
