Dear Parents and Students;

As you may be aware the Clark County School District is in the middle of experiencing tough budget cuts.  Escobedo Middle School is doing a great job to ensure that these financial cuts DO NOT negatively impact our students, but there are a few things that would be great to have to help our classroom run even better.  If it is possible for you to donate any of the items on the Wish List it would be really appreciated.

Thanks!     Joanna Martino
