- THANK YOU! THANK YOU! Mountain View Elementary School is delighted with the generous donations you have so far given! The nurse has told us we don’t need to give any more band aids at this time. This month, let’s focus on children’s clothing: underwear (sizes 6, 8, 10), sweatpants (6-8, 10-12), leggings, socks, no jeans, please. Many children come to school without breakfast so snack items would be appreciated: goldfish, granola bars, fruit bars, peanut butter or cheese and crackers. No cookies, please. Put donations in the gym bag with the Mountain View sign. We do so appreciate your dedication to this mission!!
