West Junior High is hosting a winter warm-up tonight at their volleyball game. They were asking fans and players to bring warmth, dignity, and comfort to the community. They were asking for donations of things such as gloves, scarves or hats. Way to support a good cause Pontiac volleyball team.!!

Project Cupid on Y98 FM is a community initiative in partnership with St. Louis-area schools, where students create Valentine's Day cards for seniors in nursing homes to combat loneliness and spread cheer. The radio station's morning show, The Bret Mega Show, will visit our school and pick up the valentines on February 2nd at 11:15 AM to gather these handmade valentines for delivery. The goal of the Cupid Project is to bring joy to elderly residents in nursing homes during Valentine's season. It is meant to emphasize kindness, philanthropy, and connecting generations, along with its mission to fight loneliness. The radio station then arranges for the cards to be distributed throughout the area. More than 30 schools are participating.
Thank you to Mrs. Poe for calling into the station and volunteering Pontiac!

I appreciate your kindness. Have a fun Friday. Ms. Debbie

Mr. Stultz's class was very thankful to receive this kindness!
