SANDPOINT — In an unused classroom at Farmin-Stidwell Elementary School, Sandpoint’s generosity is on display.
At the end of a long hallway, past more than a dozen classrooms, lies Lake Pend Oreille School District’s Resource Closet — a free inventory of shoes, clothing, backpacks, toiletries, and anything else a student could need to show up to school ready to learn.
“If someone says they need something, we provide it,” said Dr. Betsy Dalessio, principal at Farmin-Stidwell and creator of the resource closet.
