Thank you all for participating in the Slate Valley food drive benefiting Fair Haven Concerned! After three weeks of collecting, the numbers are in, and the food delivered. As a district we donated 1158.5 lbs. of non perishable and household items to the local food shelf. Listed below are the winning classrooms in each school for largest donation.
OVS = Ms. Valley
FHGS = Ms. Morgello
CES = Ms. Russell/ Ms. Molis
Middle school = Mr. Clark
The winning classrooms will choose if they would like a pizza or ice cream party sometime in March.
While it was a tight race, the school with the most pounds donated and winner of the district wide prize is Castelton Elementary coming in at 590.1 lbs. CES will be joined by Miss Lucy Neel from Holland, VT for a day of learning centered around Vermont Native American history and culture. Lucy is a member of the VT Nulhegan Abenaki tribe.
Mark Grossarth from Heritage Family Credit Union to talk with K, 1, and 2 about wants vs needs and checking and savings accounts. The 2nd-grade students learned how to write a check. Mr. Grossarth brought some swag from HFCU too and even got our students started with the savings accounts by giving them all a quarter!
