About:
Northside Elementary School students, families and staff recently participated in their annual “Toys for Children” holiday drive organized by John Theissen of the John Theissen Children’s Foundation and coordinated by the school PTA. More than 800 new toys and games were donated for distribution to children in local hospitals.
In addition, a “Giving Tree” was placed in the school’s lobby, adorned with paper cut-outs of snowman snow globes as ornaments. Each ornament represented a donated gift. Both the holiday drive and the “Giving Tree” were part of the students’ focus on generosity during the month of December.
