You might think summer means a break for Community School Directors, but the work never stops.

At Union City Elementary, a United Way Community School, Community School Director Bailey Pituch coordinated with their Corporate Partner, Great Lakes Insurance Services Group LLC, to organize the community closet. While it may seem like a small task, efforts like these help ensure students and families have access to needed resources and set the school community up for success when the new school year begins.

Thank you to Great Lakes Insurance Services Group LLC and Bailey for continuously supporting families and students!

Thank you Mercyhurst University - your support means everything to us and the students and families at Edison Elementary School

Huge thank you to the Mercyhurst University students who donated their used clothing to Edison's Community Closet, which will keep us stocked for weeks! Community Engagement at Mercyhurst University helped coordinate student donations from their Trash to Treasure collections and we couldn't be more grateful!

A big thank you to MacDonald Illig Jones & Britton LLP for donating books to Jefferson Elementary, A Community School πŸ“š

There’s no better way to kick off summer than with a new book in hand. Thanks to community partners like MacDonald, Illig, students will have even more opportunities to explore, imagine, and continue learning all summer long.

Thank you for investing in our students and helping foster a love of reading!
