A new student organization has sprung up, it is called FCCLA. They put together a school wide project called, Comet Coat Closet. Do you have unused coats or winter gear taking up space in your home? Has your child out grown their winter necessities and you can't bring yourself to buy the expensive material? Then we have a solution for you! The Comet Coat Closet is where you can come in, pick up new winter gear, drop off the old, or trade something out, and the best part is everything is free. Please feel free to stop by during school hours. FCCLA Members
