FlexSchool Core Values In Action At Bronxville

FlexSchool Bronxville has been learning about the current housing crisis in New York City. Over 100,000 people are seeking temporary shelter, and many are refugees of the climate crisis. Our community came together to respond, collecting several boxes of nonperishable foods, and over 40 items of winter clothing like coats, hats, and sweaters. On top of that, Haleigh's Cooking Up History class made 52 bagged lunches to distribute, using ingredients that were generously donated by Geoffrey Fischer, a chef and FlexSchool parent. All donated goods are being dispersed at emergency shelters throughout the Bronx and Manhattan. The winter clothing and food drive will continue through the cold weather, and we are especially looking for boots and socks right now. The FlexSchool community is doing our best to live our values of respect and exploring the interconnectedness of all people.
