Not only did Provo High students reach their goal of
collecting and donating 10,000 items of food to donate, but they smashed it by
collecting 15,232. Way to go,
Provo High!
Students were promised that if they met their goal, they
would be rewarded with an assembly where their teachers would perform various
embarrassing stunts, such as the math teachers hula hooping, the coaches and
Principal Jeff Schoonover dancing in tutus, teachers break dancing and shaving
beards and many other student-pleasing antics. Everyone came through on their promises.
Silliness aside, Schoonover said this was a great opportunity for the students to participate in some
service learning, to see a need in our area and then work hard to help fill
that need.
While this post focuses on the efforts made at Provo High to
collect food during this season, many schools throughout our district have made
significant contributions to our local food banks as well. Everyone is invited to share their
food-collecting experiences in the comments section below.
Thank you to all the students and staff in our district who
have helped the season be a little brighter for many of our neighbors this
year.
