South Math Club helps collect food, decorates school for fall
South Cumberland's Math Club has sponsored a food drive each school year. This year they sponsored the Second Harvest Food Bank Food Drive. All the schools in Cumberland County competed to collect the most pounds of canned food. South collected 1,721 cans of food this school year. Out of all the elementary schools in the county South Cumberland had the most pounds of canned food!
The Math Club at South offers a free pizza party for the class that brings in the most cans. This creates a humongous rivalry amongst the classes at South Cumberland.
Along with sponsoring the Second Harvest Food Bank food drive, they also decorate the school campus for the fall season. This gives real character to the campus at fall time.
The Math Club has just settled down from doing a two-day ice cream sundae sale at South. The Math Club stays very busy during the school year.
The officers for Math Club at South for the 2009-2010 school year are Logan Parsons, president; Reed Shaw, vice president; Crystal Clark, press secretary; Hayden Shadden, techno man; and Logan Stewart, behavior control.
The SCES Math Club would like to thank all the parents that donated their time, effort, and donations to make the school campus look fabulous! Also, the Math Club would like to thank Mrs. Linda Hillis, Math Club sponsor and seventh-grade math teacher, for everything she does to make this club so fun and exciting!
