We have received several inquiries about the HPMS Care Closet and wanted to share more information about the program. The Care Closet provides students with access to needed items such as snacks, hygiene products, dinners, and other essentials to help build confidence and comfort. These items are available to students in a private area at school, where they may help themselves.
Currently, this program is funded solely through donations, both monetary and in goods. If you are interested in donating to this cause, please contact the school at 256-796-5898, Beth Metcalfe at bmetcalfe@ccboe.org
