HAZEL IS BACK

To carry the fun through the week, West weighed the class’s contributions and let them know who was winning during their morning assembly. The students placed their nickels in their respective grade’s buckets during the assembly.

This sparked excitement for students as they waited to see which class won by raising the most nickels.

“It doesn’t matter what place you get, it’s just fun,” said fourth-grader Diem Vines.

“My favorite part is using nickels and the pizza party that first place gets,” said fourth-grade student Captain Kendrick.

“Even second place will have ice cream!”

With thousands of nickels raised and over 3100 laps completed, the event proved to be a big – and fun – success.

“I love the running and getting to be splashed in the face by the water jug, even if it gets in my nose,” laughed student Myla Corey, who is excited to do it again next year. C
