Our 38th annual Harvest for the Hungry: Kids Helping Kids has begun! Our students find a sense of belonging as they bring in food and encourage donations to the Anne Arundel County Food Bank, learning to give and help others in our community. Bring in food to your local school or donate online at aacps.org/harvest throughout the month of October!
