Thursday, July 30, HCPS office of Family and Community Engagement will host its first school supply drive at Mad Science on Nuckols Road.
Support students and families as the school system gears up to go virtual for the first nine weeks of the 2022-21 school year. While HCPS’ 2020-21 school year will begin using a fully virtual format, some students still need help with school supplies. Besides standard supplies such as highlighters and notebooks, many families also need assistance with supplies that might normally be found in a classroom, such as whiteboards, pencil sharpeners, and treasure boxes.
You can help by dropping off supplies from 1:30 to 3 p.m. at Mad Science of Central Virginia in Glen Allen. To prioritize safety, the drop-off will use a drive-thru format, with social distancing and mask-use in effect. The drive is sponsored by HCPS’ Department of Family and Community Engagement. Some needed items are listed below.
