SUPPLIES NEEDED
HELP PREVENT YOUR STUDENT FROM GETTING COLDS OR FLU BY DONATING SUPPLIES:
The school is in need of supplies! We are grateful for all the donations so far this year, but as you know we're in the middle of cold and flu season. Thus we could use your help stocking the school with supplies such as Kleenex, disinfecting wipes, paper towels and hand sanitizer. (We use the disinfecting wipes to clean door knobs, tables, and light switches to minimize illness). Below are a few Amazon links for the needed supplies. If it's more convenient for you, have them delivered directly to the school at: BASIS Scottsdale 11440 N. 136th St. Scottsdale, AZ 85259
We appreciate your help!
