As students prepare for the start of a new school year, the Prince William County Republican Committee and Congresswoman Barbara Comstock (VA-10) conducted a back-to-school supply drive to benefit some of the County’s neediest students. The Committee collected a large amount of supplies and delivered them on Wednesday to Parkside Middle School and Sinclair Elementary School, both in Manassas.
“I thank the Prince William County Republican Committee for putting this important back-to-school supply drive together and helping the students of Prince William County grow academically,” said Congresswoman Comstock. “It was an honor to join the initiative. These supplies will help low-income families, so every child has the tools for success. I hope the Prince William County community has a wonderful year of learning.”
This is the third year that local Republicans have collected supplies for Title 1 schools or schools with a high population of low-income students. They donated to Occoquan Elementary School and Rippon Middle School in 2015 and Vaughn Elementary School and Fred Lynn Middle School in 2014. Title I schools are academic institutions with high numbers or high percentages of children from low-income families.
“The Prince William Republicans are grateful to be able to serve the community throughout the year through various projects and activities,” said GOP Chairwoman Dottie Miller. “This school supply drive is a great way for us to use private sector resources to support education, because these students will be Prince William’s leaders of tomorrow.”
Items collected included backpacks, pens, no. 2 pencils, water-based markers, glue sticks, three-ring binders,
pocket folders, and loose-leaf notebook paper. Any Prince William County resident can participate in the Committee’s Community Service Initiatives no matter what their political affiliation is.
