A Busy Morning at School...

Today was my day to help out in Hannah's class. As if it wasn't a busy morning with finishing up workbooks, getting ready for vacation, and having a party, the entire school gathered together for a special ceremony.

Two weeks ago, the school did a Walk a Thon and collected pledges and money on behalf of the Hurricane Katrina victims. The students collected over $24,000 from the pledges and donations!! The special ceremony was presenting a check for that amount to a representative from the American Red Cross.

Hannah's class is directly behind the 'check'. Hannah is in a pink shirt.

Following the presentation to the Red Cross, the kids had thier party. The kids had a great time!
