Students Facing Special Circumstances/Weekend Food Bags

​

​

Students living in special circumstances are identified by counselors and teachers.  ECMC then provides students with basic needs, necessary tools, and support to enable them to reach their goals, achieve and to be successful. 

​

Students identified as food insecure take home a Teen Weekend Food Bag each Friday.

​​

Ongoing needs include shoes, clothing, toiletries, and school supplies.

 

The Teen Weekend Food Bag Program is made possible through a grant from the Community Foundation of the Florida Keys, community partners, and private donors.

Clothing Exchange

​

​

The Clothing Exchange is open each school day during school hours.  Students and parents can donate gently worn teenage appropriate clothing to the closet.  Students can then select new items for their exchanges.  Students that need clothing items are encouraged to "shop".  The closet is maintained by youth volunteers and an adult volunteer.
