The Student Council is sponsoring a penny war again this year in honor of Catholic Schools Week. We are focused on giving back to our community and will be donating all of the money collected to The Ark in Lacon. If you have students that currently attend St. Ed's or are alumni or parishioners and have a pet from The Ark share your pictures here for the kids to see later in a slide show.
All pennys and bills are counted as positive points, but students may "bomb" other classes with silver change for negative points! Thank you for the support!
Tomorrow we kick off Catholic Schools Week! Monday students may wear animal print. We will also start our Penny Wars to raise money for The A.R.K. Animal Shelter.
Next Wednesday on Patriotic Day for Catholic Schools' Week, we are collecting bars of soap or monetary donations for HOI Blue Star Mothers to send to troops. Please help if you are able! ?'s- Mrs. Toman
