Thank you, everyone, for your donations to Pennies for a Pup!
A combined total of $6,308.56 was raised for Mrs. Raab’s son's seizure-alert dog.
Two classes raised over $1,000, so it was decided that they would both earn a pizza/donut party tomorrow in their classrooms.
Way to go, 3rd-grade class, for raising $1,136.36, coming in behind the 2nd Graders who raised $1,993.31!
Thanks again to all! It’s a great day to be a Hornet!
