Martin Luther King Day of Service


Today Crete Elementary celebrated Martin Luther King's Day of Service. It was a super neat experience for the school community.  We have been gathering canned food for 2 weeks to be donated to our local food bank. We also spent part of our afternoon tying fleece blankets to be given away to families in need. Our school came together at the end of the day to celebrate our service to others.  With 150 blankets spread on the gym floor, and 1480 cans of food towering in the center our school celebrated the gift of giving.  Each student was given a t-shirt in honor of MLK. I was proud to be part of such a giving school. Way to go Crete Elementary!
