Beech Tree Elementary's Cereal Food Drive: A Sweet Success!

At Beech Tree Elementary, our school spirit shone brightly as we hosted our very first Cereal Food Drive, proudly supported by our Student Council Association (SCA) members and the club sponsors,  Daniela Arosemena, Sydney Parse, and James Meyer. The excitement in the air was palpable as students rallied together to collect cereal for the Cereal4All initiative, which partners with Food for Others to help families in need.

A Goal Surpassed!
Our ambitious goal was to collect 400 boxes of cereal, and guess what? We absolutely crushed it! Thanks to the generosity of our amazing Beavers, we collected a whopping 471 cereal boxes! This achievement not only highlights the kindness and teamwork of our students but also demonstrates the incredible power of the community.

Cereal Party Competition
To add a sprinkle of fun to the drive, we turned it into a friendly competition! The class that donated the most cereal boxes earned a special cereal party. Students were motivated to bring in their favorite cereals, knowing that their contributions would make a difference for families in our area.

Celebrating with a Domino Train
To celebrate our success, we decided to create a spectacular cereal domino effect! Students gathered in the hallway to watch as we set up a long train of cereal boxes, stretching down the hall. The excitement built as we pushed the first box, and the chain reaction brought cheers and laughter from everyone present. It was a sight to behold, and it truly showcased the spirit of our school.

Looking Ahead
This year’s Cereal Food Drive has been a resounding success, and we cannot wait to make it an annual tradition! A heartfelt thank you to all the students, families, and staff who came together to support this wonderful initiative. Your generosity and enthusiasm made a real difference in our community!

Here’s to many more successful drives in the future! Together, we can continue to spread kindness and support those in need. Go Beavers! 🐾✨
