A big thank you to our school community for your amazing support of the district-wide Make a Difference Day effort!
Our Action Team never rests and is on to their next project. Students viewed the attached video about a 4 year-old boy spreading kindness and love. They were so inspired by his actions, they decided to try and make a difference too. https://youtu.be/vJFlO9-poJ8
Their Goal: to raise $ to help underprivileged children in our surrounding communities stay warm and cozy this winter. Students chose to help Detroit Merit Academy, a charter school in Detroit where 60% of the student population receives free or reduced lunch.
The Action Team will be collecting coins for kindness to achieve this goal. The coin drive will run from Monday 11/12- through Tuesday 11/20. Student may bring in their donations and place them in the supplied buckets in each classroom. Monies will be spent to purchase winter clothing items to donate to Detroit Merit Academy.
The Action Team has set a school goal to raise $600 for this effort! They will be sponsoring a Crazy for Coins and Kindness Day on Thursday, 11/15. Students may donate $1 and wear crazy socks, crazy hair, crazy mismatched clothes, etc. Thanks for your support!
Come on out and support the PTO when you shop at Rear Ends on Thursday, November 15th from 6-8pm! Ten percent of all proceeds will be donated to our PTO. Rear Ends is located at 6095 Orchard Lake Rd. See the attached flyer for details! /uploaded/schools/LonePine/Rear_Ends_Fundraiser.pdf
