Fill that Bus

This year at Hamilton City Schools, we were challenged to "Fill that Bus," similar to "Move that bus!" from Extreme Makeover: Home Edition. Each school had to collect canned goods and non-perishable items, pack boxes, then load up a bus that would drop all of the donations off to Shared Harvest, a local food pantry that helps out the Hamilton area. My school, Pierce, is one of the smallest in the district and we beat our goal of 88 boxes by 8, giving us 96 boxes of donations!
