Good evening, Jackson families!

 This is Mr. Echard Principal of Jackson Middle School... We have been hosting a pet drive to help the Humane Society of Parkersburg this week. The HSOP will be here for our PBIS fall festival next Wednesday afternoon. As a result, we would like to present them with as many supplies as possible. TOMORROW, Friday, Oct 10, is the last day for your students to bring in supplies for this cause. 

 The supplies needed are as follows:

·         Purina One kitten food

·         Purina One cat food

·         Purina One dog food

·         Purina dog chow

·         Non-clumping cat litter

·         Fresh News cat litter

·         Durable dog toys

·         Cat toys

·         Friskies canned cat food

 As a bonus, this is also an Olympic event. That means the countries who bring in the most pet supplies will receive points towards the Olympics held at the end of the year. 

 Thank you so much for your help in making this a successful pet drive!
