During the month of February, the Washington Caldwell community will be collecting donations to send a care package to a soldier serving overseas. The purpose of the care package is to let this soldier know we are thinking of him and thankful for his service. This is a very special solder to Washington, he is one of our very own graduates, Jeremy Mielke. Cpl Mielke is in the Army and currently deployed to Afghanastan. There will be collection boxes in Ms. Bozio’s room for donations. Please see the attached flyer for needed and recommended items. If you have any questions, please call or email Ms. Bozio.
