Tis the Season...

During the Holidays we often feel the pull to give back to our community, our favorite charities and our fellow man when we reflect on the many blessings we have experienced over the last year. Becoming an annual tradition for the Jr/Sr High Student Council, we are working on stocking the shelves of the Belmond Community Food Pantry yet again. Students have been working hard on collecting food at home athletic events, campaigning with their peers to bring in needed food items, and collecting non-perishables at the Elementary Christmas Concert! Items of top necessity include: Mac and Cheese, Pasta, Pasta Sauce, Flour/Sugar, Canned Fruit, and Jello/Pudding. If you are willing to donate please see Mrs. Stein as soon as possible! Along with our efforts for the food pantry, student council members have been busy volunteering their help with the organization, supervision, and production of the Jacobson Elementary Christmas Concert. Students will be talking students to the bathroom, helping keep students entertained, connecting students with parents, etc.! Tis the Season!!!!

Food Pantry Update!

Throughout first semester the Belmond-Klemme Jr/Sr High Student Council has been working on month long drives to raise money and food donations for the Belmond Community Food Pantry. As of Friday, December 16th we have raised over $100 to buy gallons of milk, and more surprising than that we have filled the back of four trucks with food and household necessitities! The responsibility, charitable donations, and effort has not fallen only on students' shoulders however. Local businesses have collected food, local farmers have donated bushels of corn to be sold and had the proceeds donated, students and faculty have donated money and food items, and the list goes on! It has truly been a community-wide effort! We should be proud!
