Appropriate school clothes make it more likely that students will attend school regularly, feel more positive about themselves and do better in their studies. In 2017 \u2013 2018, Operation School Bell dressed 7,884 students in 43 Title I Schools.<\/p>\n<p>Assistance League of Hawaii provides school clothing to students through In-Store Student Shopping Events. Students at selected Title I schools are invited by their principal and counselor to meet Assistance League members at a local retail store on a designated day and time to select their own clothing and shoes. When the students reach the budgeted amount, Assistance League members help them through the check-out procedures and pay for their purchases. It is so rewarding to see children leaving with their own new clothes, wide smiles, and a big &#8220;Mahalo!&#8221;\u00a0(Thank you!)<\/p>\n<p>Each student receives:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>$60 for grades preschool \u2013 grade 5<\/li>\n<li>$75 for grades 6 &#8211; 12.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Students attending a participating in a Title I school that requires uniforms will receive a school shirt paid for by the Assistance League of Hawaii.<\/p>\n<p>The children\u2019s joy and appreciation in getting new clothes to wear to school is heart-warming to the Assistance League members. They gladly give their time and effort to clothe schoolchildren in the hope of increasing student self-esteem and school attendance&#8211;thereby increasing academic achievement.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=&#8221;blue&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_custom_heading text=&#8221;Operation School Bell Literacy Services&#8221; font_container=&#8221;tag:h3|text_align:left&#8221; use_theme_fonts=&#8221;yes&#8221; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]Our member volunteers also participate in <strong>Operation School Bell Literacy Services<\/strong>.
