Penny Wars:
This week our school will participate in Penny Wars in order to raise money for our 5th graders to go to Camp Kanuga. Pennies are positive points and silver coins (nickel, dime, quarter) are negative points or BOMBS!! Haha! You child can bring change in order to participate. If you don't have change, the fifth grade teachers will exchange cash for coins in the morning. :)
The winning class wins a pizza and a movie party!!! :)
