During these past two weeks, there have been countless ways our students, community and staff members have reached out to lend a helping hand to others in the Crestview community.  Many of you participated in picking up paper snowflakes from the nurse’s office in order to donate or purchase an item for a family in need during the holiday season at CMS.  Others gave countless hours of time before and/or after school to help in various ways or volunteer in the classroom.  Others went out of their way to do home visits with Crestview families or bring dinner to students who never get a sit down family opportunity.  We were asked by community members to ring the bell outside a local grocery store to help serve our community and sing carols for those who passed by.  It is these opportunities that allow our hearts to be filled with joy of others and to give back for all those in need.  Thank you to everyone for all the hours of time and commitment you put in to thinking of helping our children be well rounded citizens filled with strong character and role models.
