LAKEVIEW — Here's your chance to relive the nostalgia of back-to-school shopping — and help local CPS students.

State Rep. Sara Feigenholtz's (D-12th) office is collecting school supplies for elementary schools in the district, including Agassiz, Greeley, Hawthorne, Inter-American and Nettelhorst.

Feigenholtz hopes to donate at least a box of supplies to every school.

After visiting local school council meetings, the representative found that schools are asking for:

• pens

• pencils

• Sharpies

• spiral and composition notebooks

• glue sticks

• 3-ring binders

• lined paper

• dry erase markers

Residents with donations may drop them off at 3223 N. Sheffield Ave., suite A or call the representative's office at 773-296-4141 to schedule a special pick-up or drop-off. They will be accepting donations until Sept. 10.
