Save
your can tabs! - In May 2011, Winston County Students
were involved in a County-wide Service Learning Project, collecting tabs
off cans. These tabs were delivered to Children's Hospital to help with
a student from another county who was hospitalized due to the April 2011
tornado. In talking with the Representative from The Ronald McDonald
House, we had more than enough tabs to help with that project, and the
remainder of tabs will help those students from Winston County. This
project was only a month long, and the number of tabs turned in was
FANTASTIC. Winston County Schools will continue this Service Learning
Project throughout the up-coming school year. We just might even have a
contest in designing the tab container! Watch for more details!! Please
continue collecting tabs for our children who are patients at Children's
Hospital, and their families who stay in The Ronald McDonald House.
During
the next five years, Alabama will be celebrating many special
anniversaries of significant events that helped create and shape our
state. Becoming Alabama is a state-wide initiative to remember and
commemorate these events. Help children take part in the Becoming
Alabama activities and connect with these special anniversaries with the
Becoming Alabama Activity Booklet and
List of Becoming Alabama Events for Kids.
