Community Food Drive
We are approaching the end of our Community Food Drive! Our fifth grade leadership team has done a wonderful job managing the project, collecting the food items each morning, designing the weekly flyers, and using a spreadsheet to calculate each week's winner. This past week, two fifth grade classrooms collected the most items - Mrs. Liott's class and Mrs. Sciandro's class. Both classes will have Outdoor Fun with first grade teachers, Mrs. Hager and Ms. Tu.
Our grand total for our collection so far is 7,886 items to be donated to our three local food pantries. Thank you for your generosity!
For our final week, we are collecting deodorant, toothbrushes, toothpaste, soap, shampoo, and toilet paper. Your children can bring donations to their classroom. Items will then be collected and sorted by our fifth grade leadership team. The class who collects the most items each week wins a special prize. This week's winner will win Critter Time with Dr. Campman. Dr. Campman will bring in some of his exotic family pets to share with the winning class, including a bearded dragon!
SPECIAL CHALLENGE: We have extended the final week to next Friday, February 25th. If the grand total of items collected is over 10,000 items, the class who collected the most items overall will win a special kickball game - students vs. teachers!
