She spends her free time being crafty, and loves to make cards, scrapbooks, bakes, sews and quilts in her Disney-themed craft room.

| Gift Cards for the Holidays
Why wait in lines?
| | Stop by the office to browse our selection of gift cards for gift-giving (and keeping). We carry many local retailers and restaurants in-house, and we have an 8-page directory of merchants, restaurants and services (across the U.S.) from which you can special order (can take 2 wks to arrive).
If you buy a $25 Starbucks gift card, you receive a $25 Starbucks gift card, and Starbucks will donate a percentage back to the school. If you buy your gift cards from us, you lose the line, and our students gain a little profit. :)
