  • Thanksgiving food drive brings out generous spirit at Transfiguration

    With the help of students like Keren, pictured helping to post flyers around the school, SWBOCES at Transfiguration is hosting a Thanksgiving Food Drive. The effort is collecting donations from families and staff at the Tarrytown school through Nov. 21. All donations will go to Feeding Westchester. Items requested include canned gravy, canned corn, stuffing, cranberry sauce, corn bread, rolls & biscuits, white rice, canned yams, mashed potatoes, and mac and cheese. "I'm heartened by the show of generosity and student engagement this food drive has brought out in our Transfiguration community," Principal Francesca Fernandez. "Knowing we are helping our neighbors in need at this holiday time is a precious gift in itself."
