Students,

Steller has officially started the Pennies for Patients fund raising event.  The event will continue for the next two weeks. We will help people who are sick with cancers like Leukemia, lymphoma and myeloma. All you have to do is collect coins and other donations and put them in your AG classroom collection box. Remember that every penny counts! Our goal is  to raise $500. The classroom that raises the most will earn a pizza party.  That means that if everyone contributes just one dollar one advisory group will have a party.  Once you have made a donation write your name on a Pennies for Patients name pad in the hallway and be one of the “heroes” helping to fight these diseases.

Remember, every penny counts!  Coins can make a difference in the fight to find a cure. The US Mint estimates that there is 13 billion dollars in loose change lying around in American! Check under couch cushions, in the car, in your locker, on the sidewalk and in your family’s junk drawer. Of course, donations of all currencies are also accepted – nickels, quarters, dollars, etc. Thanks for fighting cancer … one penny at a time! Nurse Anne

Ski/Snowboard sign up will be in Jen’s room.
