TKS Cares: Collecting New PJ's
We are excited to announce that our TKS Cares holiday community outreach will be Jammies for Jubilee. Starting on Monday, Dec. 5th, we will be collecting new pajamas (sizes 0-16 years old) to donate to Jubilee Park Community Center. Our 3rd grade students are leading this charge and have made a TKS goal to collect 250 sets of new pajamas by Dec. 13th! Collection bins will be set up outside each classroom. Please help support this important cause benefiting a local 62-block neighborhood in Southeast Dallas.
