Candy & Snack Wrapper Recycling

COMMUNITY SERVICE

Coming Soon: Winter Clothing Drive

CP's Annual Winter Clothing Drive is coming soon! It's time to start going through your closets to find gently-used cold weather gear to donate. Each year, our PTO coordinates the collection, organization, and distribution of clean coats, blankets, sweaters, and winter accessories from drop boxes at schools across the District. Many Princeton families rely on this yearly event for their essential winter gear, so please take a few moments to sort through your outgrown and duplicate items. More details to come!
