Summit Hill 161 School Supply Drive Beginning August 3, 2026, the Hilda Walker Little Library will be stocked with school supplies for families who may need a little extra support. If you are in need of school supplies, please stop by and take what you need. Check back often, as we will continue to restock the library while supplies last. The Little Library is located near the school's main entrance. Donations are warmly welcomed! If you would like to help support other Summit Hill Families, donations of new school supplies will be accepted August 3–7 in the Hilda Walker Main Office between 9:00 a.m. and 3:00 p.m. This is open to all Summit Hill Families.
