A huge shout-out to McDade Food pantry for their support of McDade Elementary! The food pantry secured a grant from the St. David's Foundation to support food nutrition for children in the McDade community. They are using part of the grant funds to purchase daily snacks for students in grades PK-4. Before the grant, those snacks were purchased by classroom teachers out of the personal funds or donated by parents. These grant funds make it possible to provide a daily snack to over 100 students every day of school.
We are so appreciative of McDade Food Pantry partnering with McDade Elementary in supporting our students.
