It’s Spirit and we are 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
