CMHS enrolls initial refugees from South Louisiana

In my classes today I added a young lady - soon to be 14 - from New Orleans, a fellow from Slidell and a young lady from Metairie. CMHS may enroll scores of refugees in the next few days, we are told.

I am sure some of them have arrived with little in the way of clothes, books and cash. Therefore, please begin looking through your closets and boxes for clean and neat jeans and shirts and school supplies to bring to CMHS. Mrs. Deborah Moorehead is our Red Cross club coordinator and that group can be counted upon for efficient and smart collection and distribution. Her email is dbmorehead@shreve.net.
