Jones Paideia Elementary working hard with Pencil Partners

Jones Paideia and Buena Vista elementary school's Pencil Partners helped kick off the school year with supply drives for students!
Friday, Aug. 6, before school even started, Dr. Debra Smith, principal at Jones Paideia, along with Cynthia House and Erin Ugboaja, counselors at Buena Vista EOS, held a special event for their families at Kroger. Parents were able to stop by and pick up school supplies, school lists, and get any school questions answered. Kroger is Pencil Partner for both schools.
Then Wednesday, August 18, HUD donated 25 backpacks and additional school supplies to the students at Jones Paideia.
Thank you PENCIL and these outstanding PENCIL Partners for helping these students and staff start the year off in style!
