students may donate any pennies or other change to the project. This year the
younger students will be provided a donation box to aid in their
collecting. The grades that raise the most funds will be rewarded with a
pizza party and also if individual classes raise at least $100 then their class
will be awarded a pennant. Bronze pennants will be given for $100 raised,
Silver pennants for $200, and Gold pennants for $300 per classroom.
