Glue Sticks Needed!

Hello All!

As the school year continues, I've noticed that all of our glue sticks have disappeared! These are a needed supply since we use them every day for our interactive science notebooks. If you would like to donate some glue sticks it would be MUCH appreciated! :) I will be going to the store tonight and purchasing some as well. Hope you have a wonderful evening, and I will see you in the morning!
