Food Drive

Our school ran a food drive. Our advisory goal was 199 items and $210. Each student committed to what they could bring in by filling out a little slip of paper. We brought in 158 items and $188 (but half of that was Mrs. LeMay's matching money . . . ). So students brought in $94 (as of 11/14).


One person thought we didn't care enough (as a group). When Mrs. LaMoore offered to throw a party with lots of food, people got more energized. We came up with $212 which was over our goal. We also went over our goal on food items (with a total of 236). If we had contributed this much during the school food drive, we would have won for the school-wide contest (8th grade). Mrs. LeMay brought the food to the food shelter on her own.

We had a food day on November 25th. Breakfast in the morning for the November birthdays, and a pizza party at lunch for our success. We not only had pizza but oreos, rolos, cheese puffs, and more.

Hawktime Plan

Mrs. LaMoore and Mrs. LeMay have 31 wonderful students in our morning advisory. This year, we really want to emphasize service learning and what we gain from it. Welcome to our new blog! Our hope is that we will all learn and grow this year. Share your thoughts!
