We are wrapping up our Pants-a-thon this week and could use more donations! Wirt County Middle School and Wirt County Primary Center both depend on donations from our staff and community for our clothing closets. As you are out shopping and find items on sale, we are very low on bottoms for both boys and girls. We are looking for donations of new bottoms - pants, shorts, sweats, and especially leggings for our girls! If you are so inclined to donate, please send donations to WCMS or WCPC. We will make sure the other school gets the sizes appropriate for them if you send them in with your child! We do ask that the items are new so that we can safely put them in our closet for students to use. As always, we appreciate your help in taking care of our student needs!
