Onondaga Road December Blog




Onondaga Road Jump Rope Team



Our fifth grade Jump Rope Team put on quite a show at our November R2D2 assembly.  Students showed off their talents and various jump rope skills while onlookers watched in amazement!

Congratulations to the team and their coach, Mr. Lane, for a job well jumped!

 


Dunk Your Kicks!

Thanks to all who donated gently used sneakers to our Dunk Your Kicks donation drive.  Students are encouraged to bring sneakers that they may have outgrown from now through December 19.  For every pair of sneakers donated to the Max Cure Foundation, a recycler of affordable used clothing then donates funding to pediatric cancer research.  For more information, you are welcome to visit their website www.maxcure.org.  


Food Drive Continues 

 
In an effort to make someone else’s holidays happy, we are accepting canned food donations for our Salvation Army Food Drive.  The bins are located in the Onondaga Road School lobby from November 17 through December 15.   Our community is always very giving and supportive, so thank you very much for your generosity.
