NHSD Gives Back
with Hurricane
Relief Fundraisers
N
orth Hills School District students and staff are coming
together to help those affected by recent hurricanes in
numerous U.S. states and territories.
Middle school students raised money to support those
affected by Hurricane Harvey in Texas by conducting a
buildingwide Hat Day and "Help for Harvey" Coin War. All
donations will be used to purchase needed supplies for Paul
Revere Middle School in Houston Independent School District.
West View Elementary P.T.A. organized a three-day Change
for Change campaign to benefit Brother’s Brother Foundation
and victims of Hurricane Harvey, Hurricane Irma and Hurricane
Maria in Texas, Florida, Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands.
Each day featured a theme with the final day being “Hurricane
Heroes – Be a Hero, Dress Like a Superhero.” The students
and staff shattered the building goal of $1,200 by raising a
total of $2,345 in only three days. Because they shattered
their donation goal, Principal Jesse Simpson will don a
costume voted on by the student body and lead the building’s
Halloween Parade.
Ross Elementary students took part in “Dime Time for the
Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund.” Each classroom has a container
to collect as many dimes (and only dimes) as they can during
the course of the three-week effort. All proceeds will benefit
the Hurricane Harvey Relief Fund. Last year’s Dime Time
fundraiser brought in 17 pounds of dimes raising $1,600.
