October 13, 2015 - The grade 7 and 8 Student Council at St. Charles College wanted to find a way to celebrate the fall harvest and give thanks for everything they have at school and home. The council decided to break bread and share a meal together. This meal fed the more than two hundred elementary students enroled at the school. In addition to dining together to celebrate Thanksgiving ahead of the holiday weekend, the students also contributed a few dollars or a few cans to the upcoming school canned food drive initiative. Principal Mrs. Patty Mardero says “it was nice to see these elementary students starting their own yearly tradition as they find their niche here at SCC. We, too have to be thankful for these students joining our Cards family.” Share Tweet
