Helping the People of Haiti

Mrs. Jamie ask for your help and like always you came through in a big way. The second graders and Mrs. Jamie are busy checking each kit and getting them ready to send to Haiti. She will have a number later and we will let you know just how many health kits we prepared.

If you did not get the opportunity to participate in this, or would like to help even more, here's another way to help the people of Haiti. Mr. Tompkins's brother, Dr. James Tompkins will be leaving for Haiti with a group of doctors from U. T. Medical Center on Feb. 24th or 25th. They are working in conjunction with Sevier Heights Baptist Church in Knoxville and One Vision International. Below is a list of items needed. If you would like to help, please drop the items off at the K-8 school and Mr. Tompkins will get them to Dr. James Tompkins before he leaves on this mission.
