We are so thankful to all of our community partners for making it possible for us to provide school supply assistance to families in need this school year. Because of your support, our students will start the year with the supplies they need to be successful in the classroom. No child should have to worry about going to school on the first day without the same tools as their classmates. Our community is taking care of our kids yet again, eliminating that concern! Thank you for making a difference in the lives of our students. Together, we are CT!
