The second and third grade classes at the Marion Elementary School thought of others during the holidays. The students did not exchange gifts in the classrooms during their parties. Instead, they donated the cost of a gift to the Marion Food Pantry and raised $142 to donate to the Food Pantry. This was in addition to any money they donated through the school wide Penny Fund.

From April 10-28, the class of 2001 (Junior Class) will be conducting the magazine and newspaper sale campaign to help defray the costs of their senior year.

The class of 2001 will sell the usual large list of magazines, music tapes and CD's, and local newspapers.
