๐ŸŽ‰ A Big Shoutout to Woodrow Wilson High School! ๐ŸŽ‰ During the month of November, the student council, led by Mrs. Pam Shrader, hosted a record-breaking food drive! The student body worked together as four grade levels competed to bring in the most items. Collectively, the school donated over 9,400 food items to the Salvation Army in Beckley! ๐Ÿฅซ๐Ÿ’ช This generous donation supports the community and broke last yearโ€™s school recordโ€”what an incredible achievement! Special recognition goes to the senior class, who donated more than half of the collected items. Their efforts earned them the honor of pieing their principal, Mr. Stafford, in the face! ๐Ÿฅง๐Ÿ˜‚ We are so proud of Woodrow Wilson High School for leading with generosity and making a real impact in our community. Keep up the fantastic work! โค๏ธ #WWHSLeadsTheWay #RecordBreakingGenerosity #CommunityMatters #SalvationArmySupport #GoFlyingEagles
