Westview Elementary The students of Westview Elementary were very busy in April collecting aluminum cans for their annual Riley Hospital for Children can drive. Over 145,000 cans were collected by the students this year. Kid’s Caring and Sharing for Riley Hospital is a fundraising effort that encourages students to give to other children without expecting anything in return. The Riley Children’s Foundation believes, that children who give to others at an early age will continue to be philanthropists throughout their lives. There were six classrooms that brought in more than 10,000 cans each. The top two fifth-grade classrooms were Mrs. Sheets’s class and Mr. Kevin Miller’s class. The top two sixth-grade classrooms were Mr. Davis’s class and Mrs. Banghart’s class. To reward students for their hard work, a school-wide drawing was held for a pizza party. Eleven classrooms qualified for the drawing, and the Westview Elementary P.T.O. provided the pizza for Mr. Stump’s class and Mr. Berkey’s class. A total of 145,123 cans were brought to the school as donations. Pictured above is Mr. Berkey’s sixth grade class. They were one of the two classes to receive a pizza party thrown by the PTO. g prin S E SAL & 11 0 ay 1 M Photo Submitted Sherman E.
