Smithfield Elementary School is participating in the Loaves & Fishes Annual Food Drive. This is the last week to donate!!! Smithfield is collecting non-perishable food items such as canned fruits or vegetables, canned meats and pastas, corn muffin mix, powdered milk, cereal, 100% fruit juice, etc. For safety reasons, no glass please! By collecting these items, we can help in providing groceries to our neighbors in need at pantries located throughout Mecklenburg County.

Last year, Loaves and Fishes was able to provide groceries to more than 76,000 people. The top collecting class will be recognized with a pizza party!

Please consider in helping your student make a difference. If you have any questions, you can visit the website www.loavesandfishes.org or email chloe1.shorter@cms.k12.nc.us.

Tuesday, December 18 is an exciting day! Visions of sugar plums and a fun-filled winter break dance merrily on everyone’s minds. To make the day extra special, Smithfield teachers and staff invite the students to wear their pajamas to school and bring a favorite book or two. We will have a school wide Pajama and Read-In day to kick off our winter break! Please, wear appropriate shoes (no slippers!).
