Items such as cookie dough will be delivered to Douglass Elementary on March 9th. More information about picking up fundraiser items will be sent home at a later time.

It is extremely important that during morning drop off and afternoon dismissal you remain in the right lane for the duration of drop off and pick up. This is to ensure the safety of our students and staff.
