Food shelf

Students currently attending any of the Compass Programs, along with their families, are welcome to access the Community Closet.

The Community Closet is open during school hours on days school is in session. Items can be sent home with students, or family members are welcome to come to the school and choose items they need. Parents are encouraged to contact Wendy Mathiason or Julie Beaufeaux to schedule a time to access the Community Closet. This also allows us the opportunity to discuss other needs to more fully support the family.

Some of the items available* include:

• Canned, boxed & dry food items
• Basic needs such as toilet paper & hygiene items
• Basic school supplies
• Clothing & shoes
• Baby clothes and blankets
• Small baby items, such as diapers, wipes
• Maternity clothing

The following are our highest need items: size 3 to 6 diapers, wipes, single serve microwavable meals, toddler snacks, snack foods (granola bars, fruit cups, pudding cups, crackers, etc. - single serving sizes work best), feminine products, tissues, toilet paper.
