Broward Public Schools Superintendent Robert Runcie said these events are important. “We have so many teachers that are doing so much fabulous work in our schools, that we try to work with as many organizations as we can to fill in the gaps we have in our system,” he said.
The school supply drive was made possible by Publix, which raised more than $300,000 in donations.
