Results for 2nd Can Collection

You should all be very proud! This week you collected over 5,000 cans! That is 5,000 cans that we took in for recycling that will not go into our local landfill. Well done!

Congratulations to Daisy B. in Mrs. Washburn's class who was our weekly winner. To be entered to win, you have to bring 10 cans in one week. Daisy won a $10.00 gift certificate to the Sandy 9 Dollar Theater!

There was a record this week for the class that brought in the most cans. Mrs. Washburn's 8th Grade Class brought in 1,270 cans!!!! Way to go. Mrs. Holyoak's class is still in the lead, but Washburn is right on their tails. Soriano and Mumford are not far behind. Here is how the class race is looking....


The 7th Graders are in the lead in the race of the grades. They brought in a whopping 3,250 cans this week!!!!!! That's more cans that were brought in all together last week! They have double the amount of total cans that the 9th graders have. The 8th graders had a MUCH better showing this week and are not far behind the 9th graders. Here is how that all looks.


Colton P. from Mrs. Holyoak's class is in the lead for the individual prize, but close behind are Paula M. in Mrs. Alford's class and Amanda H. in Mrs. Washburn's class. Chet P. in Mrs. Mumford's class is not far behind any of them.

Keep collecting cans...ask your neighbors, your family, your friends....all of the money that we collect from the recycling effort goes to your school!

You guys are doing a GREAT job. Keep up the good work. The next collection day is Thursday, October 30th...because there is no school on Halloween!

Week One Results

You should all be very proud. We had a good turn out for the first week's collections...all things considered. The fire drill in the middle of climb class threw a bit of chaos into the mix, but you collected 3,126 cans...which weighed 95 pounds. Good job!



The 9th graders are leading the way with 1623 cans total. You have Mrs. Holyoak's class to thank for your lead. They brought 1255 cans! Way to go. Remember, the class that collects the most over the entire recycle drive will win a yummy donut party. And let me just tell you that there have been enough donuts donated for you each to have several. The 7th graders are right on the tails of the 9th graders. They have 1332 cans total. Good job! The 8th graders need a bit of help. I guarantee that they don't want to be beaten by the 7th graders.


The classes in the lead are: Mrs. Holyoak followed closely by Mrs. Mumford's class.

Weekly Winner: Jeremiah J. in Mrs. Mumford's class. Congratulations! He won a movie pass to Jordan Commons for two free movie tickets.

Ok, guys...if you want a part of the action, this is only week one. You have many more weeks to go. The first week, we had 38 students participate, and look at what we were able to do! Let's triple our cans for next time. Remember, it only takes 10 cans to be entered to win in the weekly random drawing. When the winner is picked and announced on Monday, the winner will be posted on this site.


Ask your friends, your neighbors, your relatives...to collect cans for you. While the prizes are fun, the cause is important. We're working to collect cans...and convert that to cash for your marquee.
