Hi Viewlands Friends! It's that time of year when the kids are going back to school and supplies are needed. Viewlands Elementary PTSA supports the school by purchasing supplies for every student, saving parents the trip and cost of purchasing items, and making sure all supplies are the same for each classroom. The supply drive also covers a yearbook for every student. It's a big win all around!

You can support this wonderful effort with a supply donation through VEPTSA! ⭐️ School Supplies Drive: https://wspta-00023289.givebacks.com/shop/items/d4a598015749
