WSGC students raise $821 for Snack in a Pack
Waynesville Sixth Grade Center students, their families and staff raised $821 for Snack in Pack through their March Madness competition.
“We are incredibly proud of our students for their enthusiasm, teamwork and generosity,” said WSGC Principal Kevin Schnicker. “Not only did this event promote school spirit and friendly competition, but it also gave students meaningful leadership opportunities and a chance to give back.”
This collaborative effort between the Student Lighthouse Team and WSGC Student Ambassadors featured four weeks of activities as follows:
· Week 1: Canned Food Drive Competition
· Week 2: Coin Drive (Congratulations to Jody Taylor’s class for the win!)
· Week 3: Homeroom Basketball Competition (Congratulations to William Beistel’s class!)
· Week 4: Student vs. Staff Basketball Game (Staff came out on top this year!)
