Funding for Florence Victims
Superintendent's Department
District 70 Parents, Hurricane Florence devastated many areas in the Carolinas. The District 70 Character Counts Committee created a financial drive for those affected by the devastation and flooding brought on by Florence. Each school will be collecting money (coins, paper bills, and checks made out to District 70) through Oct. 5 to support the needs of Hurricane Florence victims. Each school will use different incentives to encourage participation and donations. If you have students at multiple schools, feel free to send in your donation to only one school. Thank you in advance for your generous support to our neighbors in the Carolinas. Updated 9-25-2018 10:27 AM
