South Elementary hosted a Pennies for Patients fundraiser during the week of March 27-31, where each classroom collected change which will be donated to Gillette Children’s Hospital. 

Students were able to bring in change each day to participate in the dress up day for that particular day. Those dress up days included Hat Day (Monday); PJ Day (Tuesday), Wacky Hair Day (Wednesday), Mismatched Shoes Day (Thursday), and Team Up for Patients/Favorite Jersey Day (Friday).
