The City of Gaithersburg Education Enrichment Committee has partnered with the Division of Community Service to announce a school supply collection drive from Feb. 15 to Mar. 15.
The committee conducted a survey of educators several years ago and found that supplies for teachers and students are in high demand for the latter part of the school year. As part of the Gaithersburg Recognizing Education Achievement Today, the committee will collect school supplies to distribute to the Gaithersburg-area schools to support grant-funded after school programs.
Items that are needed include:
