Needs for week of August 16

Well, week ONE is in the books!  I hope that everyone had a great first few days.  We are getting back into a routine over here and I, for one, couldn't be more excited about it! 

The forms for students to sign up to receive Bear Necessities will go home either today or Monday.  Either way, I'm expecting our numbers to go up next week.  With that, I'm just going to post the items on next week's menu because I don't know for sure how many of each we'll need.  I can tell you that we never went above 33 students last year. 

We also have some school supply needs that need to be filled ASAP!  We have a few students who have been unable to afford what they need to be successful at school this year.  Having been a teacher in the past, I know that our staff will be tempted to go out at purchase these items but I know that we can all pull together to keep the teachers from doing that.  If you are able, please get these items to me as soon as possible:   (UPDATED 8/11:  DONATED ITEMS HAVE LINE THROUGH THEM.  tHANK YOU TO THOSE ALREADY SHOPPING FOR OUR KIDS!!!)
