Taylor Elementary School Project
Ocoee Lodge No. 97, Independent Order of Odd Fellows, recently donated 15 jackets for the Safety Patrol
at Taylor Elementary School. The reflective jackets are needed to assist the students of the Safety Patrol
as they work in the rain and inclement weather.

Odd Fellows Lodge, Taylor students Kallie, Savannah, Bryer, and Whitney, along with School Resource
Officer Travis Mull and Dr. Sherry Shroyer, Principal.

for this gift to our Safety Patrol. This is a great blessing to our student team of volunteers who are willing
to brave the elements to make sure that all of our students are safe!"
