PENNIES FOR PATIENTS
    
On Wednesday, February 25, 2009 staff and students came together to kick off Pennies for Patients. Penny for Patients is a non-profit organization for children with leukemia and lymphoma cancer. For the past week student council members have been working to plan this assembly. To kick off the assembly student council showed a 5 minute video showing basically what cancer is. Then student council put on a skit. As a way to get students encouraged donating student council has just finished planning principal for a day. So if you have any extra change lying around please donate. Just a little money can save the life of a child with cancer.
PRINCIPAL FOR A DAY
    
Would you like to donate some money for a chance to be principal for the day and the possibility of saving the life of a child with cancer? If your answer to these questions was yes then you might want to listen up. Student council has planned a fundraising activity for Pennies for Patients. What happens is a student pays a certain amount of money to get their names entered into a contest. If you are the lucky one who gets your name pulled you get to be the principal for one whole school day. Some of the things the principal for the day gets to do is:
·          Be excused from all classes
·          Bring 3 friends for lunch
·          Use the radio
·          Morning announcements
·          Hall Monitor
These are just a few of the things that you will be able to do if you win. So if you would like to possibly boss students and staff around please donate some money. Donations are being accepted by Mrs. Jones room.
