As you are probably aware, SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) benefits are currently unavailable. We understand how stressful this situation can be for those who rely on this support, and we want to ensure that no child goes without food or care during this time. If your family is affected, please know that help is available:
Our school cafeteria will continue to serve breakfast and lunch daily to all students at no charge.
Attached is a list of churches and food pantries serving our Theodore community.
Families in need can reach out to our school counselor or social worker for additional information.
In addition, families may request a one-time box of non-perishable food if they are experiencing a food crisis in their household. To submit this request, complete the form at the following link: https://forms.office.com/r/kx5kxCBaKg
We encourage any family experiencing hardship to contact us confidentially — we are here to support you. You may reach out to our school counselor Mrs. Kim Jones at kljones@mcpss.com or Dr. Paul Agnew at pjagnew@mcpss.com.
Thank you for your continued partnership as we work together to make sure every child is cared for and supported.
As a reminder, our Fall Festival will be this Friday, November 7. A flyer with all details was sent home last week (a copy of that flyer is below). Parents should complete/detach the bottom of that flyer and send back to school with money as soon as possible. Students will need an armband ($10) to participate in the activities and games. Food and drinks will also be available for purchase. Parents may attend, but no siblings are allowed to attend. If you have any questions, please reach out to your child's teacher.

This is School Bus Safety Week! During this week, we highlight the importance of school bus safety practices for students, as well as other motorists. A key message during this week is to be aware of the danger zone around the bus, a 10-foot blind spot surrounding the vehicle, especially when children are boarding and disembarking. Take time to discuss with your child the importance of proper bus behavior and stay aware of school buses when on the road!
