Last year teachers and staff were truly overwhelmed by the generosity of the Allston-Brighton Community and beyond! They were able to collect\n gifts for every student in need at Brighton High School AND we had enough gifts to share with our neighboring high schools in Brighton–Boston Green\n Academy and Mary Lyons High School–to support their students in need as well! \nWe hope you will consider supporting our teenagers again this year and we thank you for your kindness to some amazing and deserving young adults! \n\n Instructions:\n \n \n\nWrite a supportive\, encouraging note.
