The Colors for Caring days for 2020-21 are:

  • Monday, October 5
  • Monday, November 9
  • Monday, December 7
  • Monday, January 11
  • Monday, February 1
  • Monday, March 1
  • Monday, April 12
  • Monday, May 3

The Colors for Caring initiative was implemented by former superintendent Dr. Jim Vaszauskas in 2015 after the overwhelming support he received during his bout with thymoma cancer.
