Candy Drive: The Brandon Middle School families do an amazing job supporting the “Haunted Barn” activity in the fall supporting O.A.T.S.!! We collected almost 500 pounds of candy this year that was handed out to the Trick-or-Treaters in October. So, the Brandon Middle School will partner with O.A.T.S. for their Easter Egg Hunt and festivities on Saturday, April 4, 2020, by collecting candy ONLY for this activity. Starting Monday, March 9, 2020, through March 26, 2020, we will be collecting Easter Candy. If you would like to donate candy, please have your child bring in bags of individually wrapped Easter Candy (no candy with nuts please) to be collected in their Seminar class and donated to O.A.T.S.
