  • 🗳️In-classroom voting activity: What’s more fall than voting? We’ll do an apple juice versus apple cider tasting and voting activity that teaches kids about the importance of making their voices heard. Grades K-2 participate in the activity during the morning while Grades 3-5 participate in the activity during the afternoon.

 

  • 🥫🧦Food and sock drive for the Human Needs Food Pantry: Every year, the Human Needs Food Pantry graciously donates clothes to darn our scarecrows and we give back by collecting items to help our food insecure neighbors.
