Successful Peanut Butter Drive!

Ms. Gillman would like to thank all students and staff members who participated in the Peanut Butter Drive for Haiti.  

Not only did Freedom Trail collect 1, 403 pounds of peanut butter, but we also collected over $400 dollars to help with the cost of shipping the peanut butter overseas.  

Efforts such as these show what a caring community we have here at Freedom Trail Elementary.

Caring and Sharing

We would like to personally thank each and every person who has continued to help us make a difference in our community through your incredible generosity.  

Currently, we are in need of breakfast items for the children of our school in the form of granola bars, snack packs, protein bars, dry cereals or anything that would be convenient to help out the children who are unable to have breakfast before coming to school.  All items will be delivered to Cassie Fry (our school guidance counselor), who will distribute the items as needed.   Thank you for your continued support and for making a difference in so many childrens lives.  If you have any questions, please feel free to contact either Cassie Fry (740-657-5700) or Kris Click at krisclick@hotmail.com.
