🦃 Thanks for Giving Food Drive! 🥫

Vaughan is a proud participant in the Thanks for Giving Food Drive to support Cobb County children and families in need again this year!

All donations are due by Monday, November 9 for our BLAST members (3rd-5th grade leadership team) to have time to sort. Thank you for helping Vaughan make a difference in our community!

Vaughan Counselors

How Can We Help?
We want to better support our students and their families! 🚀
The 2026–2027 Family Needs Assessment helps our counselors identify family needs, connect families with helpful resources, and plan programs that promote student success and well-being.
