Devil's Den- EVHS Food and Clothing Pantry

 

East Valley High School is reaching out to the community for support. We are an academic establishment, but we also try to meet the social, emotional and physical needs of our students. We recently gave our students a survey asking if they would like to have access to our food and clothing pantry and 200 out of 530 responded “yes” and 195 responded “maybe”. Those numbers are comparable to our students identified as low income according to OSPI. With that large of a need, we have been revising our current process and are looking to the community to help us support our students. 

 

Your support is key to helping open the doors to the Devil’s Den. Would you be willing to support our efforts by making a donation?  There are a couple different ways to donate. One would be to give a financial donation. Another would be to provide items such as food and toiletries.

STUDENT/COUNSELOR CONFERENCES:

Parents are encouraged to schedule appointments with the counselors to discuss academic status, post-graduation plans, career planning, etc. In addition, counselors will be providing similar information to students within the classrooms, in small groups or individually on a regular basis to prepare students for the world of work.

COMMUNITY RESOURCES:

Referrals to various community services can be made by guidance counselors. Many times, parents and students find themselves in circumstances that they are not able to manage without help. Counselors can link people to community resources equipped to handle such issues. Call for more information.

When the occasion presents itself, support services are taken into the classroom with guidance counselors presenting pertinent information regarding such topics as: career and educational opportunities, college planning, etc.

Parents suspecting that Special Education Services may be warranted are encouraged to contact the counseling office to initiate the process.
