Duchesne High School Community,
The Duchesne High School “Eagle Pantry” is available again this year. This resource provides basic, staple food items, and non-perishable foods as well as basic hygiene and household products (shampoo, deodorant, dish soap, toilet paper etc.) The “Eagle Pantry” is open to any student and their families who may benefit from this service. The pantry is open to students everyday and to families on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 2:45-3:30pm. If you need to use the pantry, please come to the front office and you will be directed to the right location. If you are in need and can not come during the available hours, please contact Principal Gatherum.
We would like to thank the many generous community members who have contributed items to make this resource possible. If anyone would like to donate items, we are always in need of staple food products (peanut butter, jam/jellies, noodles, spaghetti sauce, mac and cheese, pancake mixes, syrup etc.) canned fruits and vegetables, soups, stews, chili etc. Household items such as laundry detergent, dish soap, toilet paper and basic hygiene products are also needed and appreciated.
Our desire is for all of our students to have the needed resources for them to thrive and succeed.
