CSW – Students Appreciation Day
Student Appreciation Day began with a parade around the school, in support of the American Cancer Society’s “Relay Recess” Education Awareness Campaign in Schools. Students carried educational posters and wore a purple shirt or blouse in support of cancer victims and survivors. After the parade, a short presentation by representatives and volunteers of the American Cancer Society was held in the Petrie Gymnasium. Concluding the morning event was a short Zumba exercise that got everyone excited and pumped up. To show appreciation for their students, teachers treated them to a “Popcorn and Movie Day” in their respective homeroom classes.
