Thank You for the Food Donations!

This post is just to thank all those who have helped to contribute to the mountain of food room 214 has collected so far for the Holiday Food Drive here at 20th St. Our classroom has already filled one recycling bin and it's only the beginning of December! Ms. Mitchell has told us recently that we have collected more than any other classroom in the school!

This month the character education focus is on caring and kindness. This generosity helps students to see that this time of year is all about helping those in need, not the presents they want. We have discussed this many times in our classroom but please have a discussion at home about the difference between wants and needs. I think it is a good starting point to talking about presents at this time of year.

Thanks again and please keep the food donations coming!

We need to empty this bin!
