Our Cooke kiddos could use a little extra assistance during lunch whether it’s grabbing extra napkins for a spill, replacing a fallen fork, or tackling the dreaded opening of their cursed milk carton. 🥛👻

Your help makes a HUGE difference with our kids and allows the lunch period to run more smoothly for everyone. Cafeteria sign-ups are posted month to month. You should've received an email with the Sign-Up Genuis Link, last week!.
