Mrs. Harris' 1st grade class at Williams Magnet Elementary wanted to do something special to mark the 100th day of school this year, and they certainly accomplished their goal. They were supposed to collect 100 items to donate to the Ronald McDonald House. Students were asked to bring in items such as soap, toilet paper, paper towels, cleaning supplies, toothpaste and toothbrushes to be donated to the Ronald McDonald House. The class would count how many items they had each day to see how many more items they needed to reach their goal. They went above and beyond by collecting a total of 128 items!
Through this project the students learned the importance of giving to others in need. Everyone in the Williams Magnet family takes pride in helping their community. They feel that it is important for them to do what they can to make the lives of others just a little bit easier.
