Please check through your cupboards or toss a couple extra cans of soup in your shopping cart as you do your grocery shopping this week - our annual can food drive runs from Wednesday, November 13 through Wednesday, November 20. Donations can be dropped off at the Main Office or students can bring them to their 3rd period class. All donated food will be given to the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank to be distributed to needy families in our community. Keep in mind that foods high in fat, oils and sugar provide calories, but few nutrients. These foods make up a high percentage of many diets because they are inexpensive and easy to obtain. It is therefore important to provide healthful foods for those with limited financial resources to supplement their restricted choices with healthy alternatives.

Our Service Learning Leadership class is coordinating this effort - we hope you can help! The 3rd Period class that collects the most cans by Wednesday, November 20 will win the coveted Yes We CAN Trophy.
