Angels Among Us Pet

Rescue and Georgia SPCA

We cut up t-shirts to make strips and then braided those strips to make dog toys.

Saturnalia Party

Students were offered 5 points on their semester exam if they brought in food. As we had a surplus of food, we invited any teachers who were still at school to come. This invitation proved to help with publicity as well.
