Our Prairieview PBIS is sponsoring a winter wear drive. The school is collecting donations of clean new and gently used gloves, mittens, hats, scarves, boots, and coats. They will be distributed to many Chicago Public Schools and Illinois schools, including: Harvey, Posen, and Robbins. Drop boxes are located in the Prairieview's Lobby and in each grade level area. Thank you for your help and generosity this winter season.
