Schuylerville Elementary Students Raise $1K for St. Jude

SCHUYLERVILLE — Schuylerville Elementary School Life Skills students raised $1,000 for St. Jude Children’s Research Hospital through a Valentine’s Day community project. On Feb. 14, students delivered 500 stuffed red roses to students throughout the elementary school. Not only did Mrs. Jordan’s students intake and organize money and orders, they also packaged the roses in beautiful florist sleeves and sorted them by classroom.

“My class feels so special knowing they are helping families in need,” said Amy Jordan. “‘We’re all here to help one another…when we work together, we can make things happen’ is a quote from a child at the children’s hospital that truly inspired my students. We thank everyone who bought flowers to support this endeavor.”
