Mrs. Mateer’s class at North Elementary School recently wrapped up their gingerbread mini unit with the Gingerbread Man escaping from their read aloud. There were several different clues that they had to figure out and were always reminded to walk, walk, walk! He ended up escaping from them, but left them with a sweet treat!
On the final Friday of the semester, we celebrated our amazing students at Taylorville Junior High School with a pizza party honoring their hard work during the Fannie May candy fundraiser! 🏆
Thanks to their efforts and your generous support, our top fundraisers enjoyed delicious Angelo’s pizza and McDonald’s cheeseburgers as a token of our appreciation. 🍔🍕
The Fannie May fundraiser is Student Council’s largest fundraiser of the year, and every purchase helps support our school and students in meaningful ways. Last year, your contributions allowed us to purchase the big purple canopy tent for the recess area—a favorite spot for students to gather and play.
A heartfelt thank you to our wonderful community for continuing to show up and support TJHS. You are making a difference in the lives of our students, and we couldn’t do it without you! 💛💜
