The 6th grade students in Mrs. Lynch’s class, along with Mrs. Woznicki’s class, held a bake sale in October to raise money for school supplies, shoes, and uniforms for an orphanage in Kenya. The project exceeded expectations, raising $500.73!
Students were thrilled to help and loved baking with their parents and caregivers. Many even shared photos and messages from home showcasing their baking adventures. As part of their 6th-grade theme, “Traveling the World with Our Passports,” students also submitted questions to the orphanage’s Director to learn more about their school and daily life in Kenya. In return, they shared information about our own school, creating a wonderful cultural exchange. We love the impact these students made in others’ lives! #pccommodores
