Please, Please, Please, also consider helping in Southern Marion County. Stanton-Weirsdale, Harborview and Lake Weir Middle are all within a couple of miles of The Villages. Lake Weir Middle has roughly 1300 students and 85% are free and reduced lunches. I believe nearly 60% of these students are in remedial reading classes. In many cases, these students don't even get a PE class because of their academic needs. Please contact Principal Stephanie Callaway at
Lake Weir Middle School :: Marion County Public Schools, Summerfield, FLorida if you can help in any way. The staff, students and the community would be positively impacted by ANY help. Thank you
