A note from Mrs. Lanka
Today in Advisory, we announced our community service partner for the year - the Interfaith Food Pantry (IFP) in Morristown! All students participated in a Google Meet with IFP's Ms. Kiley Powell, who talked about the many ways the IFP helps those in need locally. To help kick-off our partnership, Mountain View will be hosting a Thanksgiving Collection Drive to help all Morris County families enjoy their holiday meal to the fullest. Please see the flyer below for more details, and send your child in with their contribution by next Friday, November 20. Thank you in advance for your support, which is crucial for many during these trying times.
