Home and School Raises $508 for School Supplies

WAITSBURG - The Plaza Theater on Waitsburg’s Main Street was packed last week as parents and children attended a viewing of the original Star Wars movie. The movie viewing – a fundraiser of the Waitsburg Home and School Association – raised $508 for the organization.

Last year, the HASA purchased school supplies for all K-8 students. Students were told all they needed to bring to school was “a smile and a backpack.” For the coming school year, HASA would like to provide school supplies for high school students as well.

The next HASA fundraiser will be a spaghetti dinner to take place Jan. 31, from 5:30-7 p.m. at the grade school multipurpose room. The dinner will include spaghetti, salad, garlic bread, a cookie and drink for only $5.
