This year the annual Giving Tree gift drive for students in need has turned digital, with each selected student making an Amazon wish list totaling somewhere around $150.

Staff and community members can select items to purchase for students, and the gifts will be sent directly to the recipient’s homes.

After the Nov. 17 initial deadline, there are still nine students who have not been selected.

The generosity of those who give helps to ensure that all students feel like they matter, are cared for and are supported during the holidays, Principal Mick Galloway’s weekly newsletter says.
