WE’RE ALSO PROUD OF A GROUP OF STUDENTS OVER AT MUNROE ELEMENTARY SCHOOL IN TALLMADGE – IN FACT, THEY GET THIS WEEK’S A PLUS!
THIS CHARITABLE GROUP HAS BEEN BUSY COLLECTING WINTER CLOTHING FOR FOSTER CHILDREN IN NEED. ACCORDING TO TEACHER AMANDA MONTELLO, THE STUDENTS CREATED ALL THE FLYERS, REACHED OUT TO PARENTS AND COMMUNITY MEMBERS, AND HAVE EVEN PARTNERED WITH A LOCAL DAYCARE TO COLLECT HUNDREDS OF DONATIONS FOR FOSTER KIDS IN THEIR COMMUNITY. MS MONTELLO WRITES, “IT'S AMAZING TO SEE SUCH PASSION AND WILLINGNESS TO HELP THOSE IN NEED AT SUCH A YOUNG AGE.” AND WE AGREE! KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK, MUNROE ELEMENTARY!
IF YOU OR STUDENTS IN YOUR SCHOOL ARE DOING SOMETHING GREAT – WE WANT TO HEAR ABOUT IT! SEND YOUR A PLUS SUGGESTIONS TO US AT NEWSDEPTH AT IDEASTREAM DOT ORG.
