Student Completes Service Project

Macey, a fourth grade student at Jefferson, recently completed a service project in which she raised money for the Salvation Army. Macey came up with the idea, organized a quarter drop, went on our morning video announcements to explain the fundraiser, went to classrooms to run the quarter drop, and also counted the money raised.

Macey was able to raise $373.62 and presented a check to representatives from the Salvation Army at a ceremony at the school. Macey was inspired to do the project because of a book she read in which it said “even one person can make a difference.” We are very proud of Macey and all of her hard work.
