Giving

Our Building Improvement Team is made up of teachers, support staff, parents, community members, students, and me. We have a generosity drive each year, where our students and staff raise money to help make the holidays better for a few area families.

I received the coolest phone call ever from one of our families from last December. Seems they went shopping, bought about five bags of toys, and want us to distribute them to a needy family this year. As it turns out, they’re having a much better year this holiday season and they want to give back. That’s the best example of generosity I could possibly hope for—not a phone call asking if we can help them out again–but one that says “it’s our turn to help someone else”.

This family is one of the most generous families out there. Last year they were in need of gifts for Christmas. They must of truly been thankful for the gifts that they were given if they gave 5 bags of toys for other families that were in need. The gift of giving is the most wonderful gift you could ever give. Christmas is not just about getting presents and eating food. I mean yes, we all like to get a present and eat delicious food but giving gifts is one of the important parts of Christmas. We all should be thankful for everything we have.
