GREEN TEAM - Congratulations to Ms. Tagarelli's class! They won the contest for collecting the most Jammers and juice cans. They collected over 300 cans and 800 jammers! They each received a homemade chocolate from Ms. B (her gingerbread men didn't turn out, so she made chocolates). Our school continues to collect both Jammers and pop/juice cans. We hope to raise enough money to purchase jerseys for our school teams.
