This week, instead of finding a new Food Insecurity Fact on their lunch tables, students found a "Food Fact Quiz"! The quiz was comprised of the weekly facts from the previous 5 weeks.
Mrs. Selmont & Mrs. Overchuk will be scoring the quizzes and ALL students who receive a perfect score will have their names announced on the Morning News next week and two tickets will be entered into the monthly raffle on their behalf !
