This year the second grade classes at Park Elementary School made a difference on the 100th day of school. They collected 464 pet items to donate to 2nd Chance 4 Life Rescue. Their goal was to collect 100 items by the 100th day of school. These little heroes collected so much more! Great job second graders!
