Opportunities To Support Our Students And Schools

Through Valentine’s Day
Cookies and Cards for the Troops
Students for Service
Wicomico Middle

The Students for Service club at Wicomico Middle School is collecting Cookies and Cards for the Troops for Valentine’s Day, to send to Afghanistan for the brother of a Wicomico Middle student and the brother’s troop. Feel free to give Girl Scout cookies (and help two causes at once), or any purchased package of cookies. Cards and letters to the troops are also welcome. Donations may be turned in at the Wicomico Middle School through Valentine’s Day. Students for Service also sent holiday care packages to Afghanistan for the brother and his troop, and the club is pleased to once again be able to show the troops that Wi Middle appreciates their service. 410-677-5145.
