    Art Supplies Sent to Tornado Impacted Schools in Guilford County

    When schools close due to damage from weather and other unpredictable events, it is truly disruptive to both the community and especially the students. In April, 2018, three elementary schools in Guilford County, NC, were impacted by tornadoes that forced them to close for the remainder of the school year. School Specialty, in cooperation with the Guilford Education Alliance, was able to donate $10,000 in art and instructional supplies to the affected schools.
