Pennies for Patients is Up and Running!
Pennies for Patients runs from Monday 3/6 to Friday 3/24.
Please encourage the children to donate their spare change to this very important cause. Boxes are in classrooms to collect donations that students bring in each day and will be collected by student council members each Friday. There will be rewards each week for the top three classes and a grand prize of a pasta lunch for the class that raises the most money overall. Of course, it is important that we remind students that the real reward is knowing we are helping others :)
