Nike Scouts did a great job during our Fire Drill today!

They worked hard to organize and run a Stuffed Animal Drive, which helped the "Jail Buddies" program of the Franklin County Sheriff's Department. This program allows officers to gift stuffed animals to children they encounter in traumatic situations. Students learned about the benefits of this program and discussed the importance of giving back to their community. From creating posters and advertising this project to collecting, counting, cleaning, and even graphing the donation numbers, these Nike Scouts did an amazing job. Through their efforts, Nike Elementary was able to acquire close to 700 stuffed animals! A school-wide assembly was held to hand over these donations to Sergeant Perkins of the Franklin County Sheriff's Department. We are so proud of our 2nd graders for leading the way and making a difference! #MVNation #GrowingTogether
See you soon, Nike Scouts!
Please see the reminders for a few MVR-3 Calendar Updates. Thank You!!
