During Christmas, the staff wanted to teach our children to spread kindness and give to others in our community. Students were encouraged to donate their spare change for two weeks. All funds raised would go towards purchasing Christmas Food Baskets for those in need in our community. The grade level with the most money collected would win a class party.
Mr. McNeil's 5th-grade class raised the most money, $505.16. The school raised $1393.36. We are very proud of our student's efforts, including purchasing 20 food baskets, ham, and all the fixings.
Thank you, Cainhoy staff, parents, and students!

It was such a great day we had to do two Girls on the Run posts! We love this program and this now annual 5K event. GOTR curriculum places an emphasis on developing competence, confidence, connection, character, caring, and contribution in our girls. Special shout out to not only our coaches, Mrs. Glears, our families and all of our running buddies who made this possible!
We want to take the time to celebrate our Girls on the Run and the completion of their 5K! On November 19th, an amazingly hard working set of girls and their running buddies hit the pavement at Riverfront park under the leadership of Mrs. McCarthy and Mrs. Karim!
