Last month, Meadows Elementary won the school award for recycling. Now, McClure Elementary has been honored for collecting the most canned goods and donations for Harvesters. At a ceremony yesterday, Jannett Wiens of Harvesters presented a trophy to McClure Principal Nancy Hedstrom.
Students and staff collected 682 pounds food to give to Harvesters to feed hungry people in Shawnee County. Each student received a certificate for free ice cream from Spangles. Carmen Booth’s class collected the most food. For their efforts, students in her class will get a tour of Spangles along with lunch.
