Hurricane Relief Drive: Saugerties NHS Partners with Convoy of Hope
The NHS is collecting personal hygiene and baby care products to create individual kits for survivors. These kits provide more than essential supplies—they show people someone cares.
Inspired by their older role models, Grant D. Morse students have joined the effort, gathering donated items to contribute to this impactful project.
Thank you to our NHS and Student Council for showing the true meaning of leadership and compassion!

Big congratulations to Luke Pomeroy, a Grade 4 student at Grant D. Morse Elementary School!
