Lake County Superintendents partnered locally
to coordinate relief efforts for the Houston
Independent School District ravaged by
Hurricane Harvey in late August.
The Texas State Board of Education helped
Lake County superintendents focus the relief
collection on items most needed, as described
in a flyer the superintendents shared with
their student communities, school and district
faculties, and staff.
• In
Addison SD 4
, the Indian Trail Junior High Builder’s Club participated in the Kiwanis Peanut Day, the Lake Park Elementary
School Student Council sold “smencils,” and the Wesley Elementary School Student Council held a “change drive” to raise
funds, and Stone Elementary School collected school supplies, non-perishable food items a d bathroom essentials.
• In
Butler SD 53
, Brook Forest Elementary School partnered with Chancellor Elementary School in Houston and sent
monetary donations. The student council also sponsored a Spirit Day to show support for all of the victim of the hurricanes.
• In
Cass SD 63

, the five schools in the district partnered with five schools in Houston, collecting money purchasing necessary
materials, setting up pen pals and partnering for virtual field trips.
• In
Woodridge SD 68
, students at William F. Murphy Elementary collected supplies and one of the teachers, Eddie Hren,
delivered them to Texas when he went there over the Labor Day weekend to volunteer. Meadowview Elementary collected
more than $1,700 through a “Penny Wars” fundraiser, Goodrich Elementary also collected money, and Thomas Jefferson
Junior High students held a “Penny Wars” and also wrote letters of hope.
CDN Logistics, Inc., of
