    Look below for some great school and community resources! 
    Please ask your teacher or school counselor for more information about any of these programs!
     
    Food for Kids  Food for Kids is a collaborative effort between Second Harvest and your child’s school. The program is designed to provide healthy, easily-prepared food to children who may be missing meals on a regular basis. These children are discreetly given a backpack full of food for themselves (and any siblings they may have at home) every Friday throughout the school year. Please contact your child’s teacher or school counselor for more information.
     
    Shoes For Kids Cedar Bluff Elementary is able to offer families shoes or shoe vouchers through a generous partnership with local churches and the Elks Lodge. Children can get one pair of shoes per semester. If your child is in need of shoes, please notify your child’s teacher or school counselor for more information. 
     
    Knox County Clothing Resource Center The Clothing Resource Center helps provide Knox County students in need with gently used or new clothing. Please contact our school social worker, Amanda Greenwood, for more information. You can email her at amanda.greenwood@knoxschools.org
     
    Vine Health Clinic The Vine School Health Center is a full-service pediatric clinic located in the Vine Middle Magnet School in Knoxville, TN.
