1C Wins the Penny War!

Our class won the penny war with terrific participation from all families, and a little bit of strategy. When we found out who was leading the Penny War each day, we decided to add silver coins and dollar bills to classrooms who were NOT in the Top 3. We spread out our "negative points" to all the classrooms equally, and in the end, we won by $20.65 over Mrs. Kilburg's class. Thank you so much for helping our class win a date with Mr. Modaff for a special recess. More importantly, we thank you for helping our school raise more than $4,600 in just 5 days of collecting. What's most amazing is that about $4,000 of that money was COINS! Can you imagine?? This magnificent amount (I'm pretty sure) will be sent to an initiative called, "Restore the Shore." More information on that will follow from the principal. Way to go, 1C! (This picture was of Ms. Hubbard's bowl on the last day when her class was in the lead. All those bills and coins are negative points toward her total.)
