Pulaski Heights Elementary Students Exceed Goal During Canned Food Drive
Pulaski Heights Elementary showed us you are never too young to have an impact. Everyone, from the youngest Panther to the oldest, contributed to PHE’s goal of collecting 300 canned goods to donate to their partner in education, Pulaski Heights Baptist Church, ultimately exceeding their goal, hand-delivering 3,000+ food items.
Ms. Katie LaBerge's first grade class collected 591 food items and as a reward for collecting the most items, they got to stilly string their principal Ms. Anna Lloyd! Building positive character is a collaborative process between parents, teachers and the community. In other words, it takes a village and we are so thankful for ours.
