Souper Bowl Food Drive
The Franklin School Student Council is hosting a SOUPER Bowl Food Drive. This is a competition between the grades to collect canned goods to help restock the food pantry. We ask that each student in our school try to bring in at least 2 cans to help. Our goal is to collect over 1000 cans! Student Council will come on Tuesday and Thursday mornings to collect the cans from each homeroom. We will be collecting canned goods until the end of February. Let’s see which grade can bring the most!
