If you are interested in still donating, we keep a fund at the school for needs just like this in the wood shop and ag shop classrooms so all students can create a project regardless of need each school year. Donations can be dropped by the District Office or mailed to 700 North Main Street. Burden, KS 67019. C/O. Industrial Arts Student Donation. Thank you!!
A message from Mr. Whitehill - We have 15 students who still currently owe $10 each for their projects in wood shop class. If there are any community patrons willing to sponsor a student project to help them pay their fees by the end of the school year please contact Mrs. Henning at jhenning@usd462.org. Thank you!
