Holiday Season of Sharing
LaSalle #122 - Daniel Marenda
Student Council at Northwest Elementary
School gathered and boxed food to be sent
to our local Food Pantry.
Rockridge CU #300 - Dr. Chester Lien
The annual Rockridge Food Drive was held in November
and was another stunning success! All Rockridge
schools participated in the Food Drive, which was
coordinated by the RHS Student Council and their
sponsor, Mrs. Aimee Neece. All of the food collected
during the month was delivered on November 27th to the
local food pantries in Edgington & Reynolds – therefore
staying in our Rockridge Community. A whopping total
of 9,500 pounds of food was collected by our students!
Steward Elementary #220 - Dr. Laura Nelson
A Team Stephanie fundraiser was held in November
to help one of our 6th grade students who was also
cheerleader. Special activities organized during the
basketball game helped to raise money for Team
Stephanie. Stephanie was 10 years old when she
was diagnosed with Ulcerative Colitis. Plans are in
place for future fundraisers to help with rising medical
bills.
