First Fundraiser


This past Saturday some of our 8th Graders participated in our first fundraiser, a bake sale at the annual Marvell Main Street Festival. Our students Troikasheia, Tyeisha, and Delytray helped with the sales with Ms. Poulin while other students participated by baking things and serving the community by helping Mr. Neuwirth with the 5k race. We raised over $200 to go towards the trip!

We've also started having weekly meetings during which the student's have been writing thank you notes and asking all kinds of questions about the City and what we're going to be doing on the trip. They are definitely getting excited about it as we begin to do more and more activities to get ready.

Coming up we are going to have more fundraisers and community service opportunities for the students to earn points towards their spot on the trip, so stay tuned and we'll keep you updated!
