The Home Depot staff mulched the flowerbeds in front of the school and in all the campus’ courtyards. They power washed the front walk and courtyard. The volunteers painted all the campus benches. The lines in front of the school got repainted. And the front parking lot got restriped.
The Home Depot team also designed and built a fairy garden in the kindergarten pod.
This is the second consecutive year that the Home Depot located on 249 has helped beautify the campus.
The DHL team led by Lily Aranda drops off the collected items.
School supplies and materials are always appreciated. The staff at the shipping company DHL Express came through again. They donated backpacks, tissue paper for classrooms and school supplies. The staff also donated something highly valued at schools: copy paper. DHL Express donated 30 cases of copy paper for the campus.
DHL Express located at 16416 Northchase Dr. has been a business partner for almost 10 years.
Principal LaDon Hunt Ward is grateful for the generosity of both Home Depot and DHL Express.
“You (Home Depot and DHL Express) are definitely our heroes,” said Ward. “You will never really know what a difference your contributions make. Please know how much we appreciate all you do. Again, thank you for thinking of us. You totally ROCK!“
