Second grade rejuvenating after a busy morning volunteering for SAMS Animal Rescue!
It was indeed a special day at Elmwood Elementary. Our theme of the month is generosity and our students seized the day by taking their opportunity to give back. K-4 students made adoption ornaments and cat toys to support the animals at SAMS Rescue shelter in Hanna City, IL. And, our 5th-6th grade helped at The Dream Center in Peoria by decorating their gym for their annual holiday event. Fifth and Sixth grade students ended their day with a little fun at Elevate and our K-4 enjoyed a movie at the Palace Theater. We are extremely proud of the kindness and generosity demonstrated by our students today. Thank you to all those who made this happen today. On behalf of Elmwood Elementary, we wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving and Holiday Season. #TheTrojanWay
