Penny Drive Extended Through October 18, 2024

The Respect Life Club has extended the annual Penny Drive through October 18, 2024. This year, the proceeds will go to Wounded Warrior Projects. Just a reminder that students need to put pennies, which count as positive points, in their own grade's bucket, and all other coins and bills, which count as negative points, in other grades' buckets.
