Every year, each NAMiss state pageant contestant brings, to pageant weekend, a stuffed toy or book (new or gently used) that will be donated to fire departments, police stations, hospitals, etc. & given to kids who are going through difficult situations. Last year, Alaina gave many of her own stuffed animals & books. Because we enjoy getting other children involved with giving, we decided to enlist the help of Alaina's classmates & teacher to bring more smiles to more kids! Beginning two weeks ago, Alaina's classmates started bringing in donations. By Monday, May 21, we collected two huge garbage bags filled with everything from stuffed toys & tons of books! It was a huge success, the kids had fun & learned that it's better to give than to receive! And as a reward for their effort & generosity, the kids were rewarded with a pizza party!
Thanks to Mrs. Chasity Easley for the support, kindness and love she shares with all of her students! She makes learning fun & enjoyable for kids & she's truly an asset to our school system! And she's just the best darn teacher ever!
***pssst... sure you don't want to come on over to 3rd grade next year, Mrs. Easley? It was worth one more ask lol***
