The Care Closet at Crockett Intermediate School recently received a $2,500 grant from the St. Joseph's Community Foundation. This grant will help support Crockett students in need. The Closet is a confidential school-based pantry available to students who don’t have access to enough food, clothing, personal hygiene items, and other necessities.
Student volunteers assist in packing food bags and stocking the closet.
