7th Grade Fundraiser - Deadline Friday, February 13th.
The 7th Graders of Sundown Middle School are fundraising to help buy school supplies for the ENTIRE middle school! Over the last 2 years, we have provided school supplies for each kid in middle school, as well as distributing extras to our friends in Elementary and High School. This year we are hoping to continue, not only reaching every child in Middle School, but helping others in all campuses. We understand you may not be able to purchase items, but if you feel led to, a donation will be just as amazing! Thank you, Sundown Community, for always having our kids' backs!
