Ok, Sprague! Ready for your first spirit week competition? We will be having a penny drive to raise money for our Unified programs here at Sprague. Jars for the penny drive can be found in the main office and commons during lunch. This is a class competition, so each grade has their own jar. Pennies count as one point, so you want to add those to your grade’s jar. Other coins and cash count as negative points, so you can add those to other grades jars to sabotage them. The winners of this competition will get points towards their spirit week totals, so start raising pennies! 1/17
