A Little Snack Can Make a BIG Difference

As we head into a new school year, we know many families are feeling the impact of inflation, rising grocery costs, and higher gas prices.

Our PTA Snack Closet helps make sure our Cardinals have access to a snack when they need one.

We’re looking for individually packaged, shelf-stable snacks such as:

Granola bars
Crackers
Fruit snacks
Applesauce or fruit cups
Popcorn
Cereal bars
Other kid-friendly, non-perishable snacks
Every box helps. Every snack matters. And every donation is another way we can show our Cardinals that their community cares.

Here’s our goal: If 100 people donated just ONE box of shelf-stable snacks, we could help ensure that no child has to worry about being hungry at school.

One box. One small act of kindness. A BIG difference for our kids.

Let’s fill our Snack Closet and take care of our Cardinals! ❤️💙🐦

(Pictured below was our amazing donations from last year thank you to the community!

A little breakfast love for our amazing teachers!

The first day back to school calls for coffee, carbs, and a whole lot of PTA love!

We kicked off the school year by treating our teachers and staff to a breakfast spread with bagels, muffins, and refreshments!

And because we wanted to make sure we could warm up their day, we even brought in a toaster!

Here’s to a brand-new school year! We’re so excited to support our teachers, staff, and Cardinals all year long.

Welcome back Dryden! Let’s make it a great one!
