PTAs Nationwide Give Sandy Hook Students a Winter Wonderland

Sending homemade snowflakes is a meaningful way to help Newtown, CT.

The Connecticut and Sandy Hook PTSA organizations have created a special way that PTA leaders, school employees and families can show their support for Sandy Hook Elementary School.

Local PTAs and schools across the country are encouraged to send paper snowflakes for the school via the Connecticut PTSA to lift the spirits of the community, calling it “Let’s Give Sandy Hook School a Winter Wonderland”.

"Like our children, no two snowflakes are alike," said a post on the National PTA's Facebook page. "We invite you to create snowflakes to decorate Sandy Hook School’s new home. Be creative! All colors and designs are welcome. We know that children will enjoy creating art that can adorn the walls of SHS’s new elementary school."

Bonney Lake and Sumner residents can join in, too. Mail snowflakes to the address below by Jan. 12, 2013:

Connecticut PTSA 
60 Connolly Parkway, Building 12, Suite 103
Hamden, CT 06514

Patch user Kerry McCann in New Jersey said she grew up in the surrounding community of Newtown, CT and still has close contact with many friends there.

"I know I feel helpless in determining what I can do to help but I came across this today and wanted to share with my New Jersey community because I know how well we come together in times of crisis as well," she said.

This is not the first time or the first person Quinn tried to hurt. I think she has a bitter andRead More evil heart. Instead of building and supporting the city, she prefers to tear down anything good and honorable. I'm so glad the voters saw fit to pass her by when she ran for election! With her attitude, it would have been detrimental to having a nice city to live in! Stuff a sock in it, Quinn!

I will never forget you David. We were connected through a tragic event that at times just feelsRead More like yesterday, and then you were taken from this earth by another tragic event. The 28 years inbetween went to fast. You were humble and down to earth. I feel as though you were surprised at how many people you touched in your 41 years. It was evidence at your service that you are loved by many, and you will never be forgotten.
