Uno, Playing Cards Needed
We have a collection of books that students can read in the cafeteria, if they choose to do so, during lunch. We would like to add a few decks of Uno and regular playing cards as options for older students. If you have either of these items you'd be willing to donate to the school, please bring them to the office for Mrs. Paige. |
