The Community Service Squad is hosting a Penny War starting on Monday, May 1st and it will go until the 16th. Bring in any spare change to your lunch shift to help raise money for Jackson County Humane Society.
Rules to the Penny Wars are:
Pennies are positive for your grade
Any silver coin is a negative for other grades, so if you drop a quarter into a different grade’s bucket, that would take 25 points off that grade’s total
At the end of the day on May 16th, all points will be tallied and the winning grade will have a popsicle party sometime that week!
So start saving your change!
