How can parents support HOPE’s efforts for our school?

Each year HOPE sponsors a large fall fundraiser.  This year families sold products from Great American Opportunities.  We encourage families to consider ordering gift items, wrapping paper & magazines from Great American Opportunities any time throughout the year, as our school will receive approximately 40% of the profit. You can check out their catalogue by clicking here.  Don’t forget to use our school’s online ID# 1418508

Are you interested in knowing about simple ways you can support your community’s school?
