Description

The School for Little Children is a ministry of First United Methodist Church in Longview, Texas. We provide full-time care for infants and are an academic institution for children ages 2 to 6. Every year (except 2020), the Parents' Group sponsors a carnival and silent auction. While the carnival raises some funds, the majority of our yearly funds are raised at the silent auction that takes place at the same time as the carnival. Our focus on this year's fundraising proceeds is the school's playground.
