Fifth
graders at McDowell Elementary School, led by Mr. Tomassion, have been running
a food drive. There were challenges between classes, students vs. teachers and
boys vs. girls to bring in the most food.
Mr.
Tomassion's goal was to donate 1,000 items. And guess what? The Downriver Fish &
Loaves Food Pantry came and picked up over 900 pounds of food which made the
total 1,024 items!
Congratulations
to McDowell for providing food stuffs to so many. Here’s a rap created by our
very talented and kind, Mr. Tomassion.
A
Food Drive Christmas
Twas
the week before break and all through the school, The 5th graders were trying
to act all cool!
The
food drive was near the last day, with a few items short Mr. T was heard to
say...
"I
thought we could hit 1000 as sure as can be, but we're a few cans short as you
can see!
When
all of a sudden from her office Ms. Borg sprang with glee...
She
said, "I have the cans we're short, right here with me!"
So
the students cheered, all proud of themselves and I believe I saw Santa turn to
his elves,
He
said, "I can't believe how much they gave this year, many more will have a
Merry Christmas," and in his eye was a tear!
