K-Kids, our community service club, is asking everyone to support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society by collecting spare change during the month of February. At the end of the month we ask that all coins/money be counted at home, placed in a ziplock bag with your child’s name, the amount and drop it off with the teacher or in the school office. For every $10.00 donation or more your child’s name will be printed on a paper penny that will be posted in the auditorium as a way to show his/her support for a great cause. The class that brings in the most money will earn a Pasta Party from the Olive Garden. All donations will be sent to the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society to help fight these diseases. Donate on line at http://sdhi.sy.llsevent.org/WolfCanyonElementarySchool.
