PENNY WARS: The competition is going on in your first period classes. Any paper cash is worth positive points ($1=100 points, $5=500 points, etc.) and any change is worth negative points. The goal is to have the most points by the end of the week, so you want to put change in other teachers jar and bring in cash for your own jar. Student council would really love to help out the local food pantry especially now that Thanksgiving and Christmas are coming around and the weather is starting to get a little colder. If you cannot donate, spread the word. ANYTHING HELPS. The first period class with the most points wins and has two options as a prize. They can pie a teacher of their choice (with the okay from that teacher) or breakfast pizza/ donuts for the class. Any questions, please see Ms. Horsfield.
