Ashley IB Magnet Students Dance to Raise Money for The Children's Home and School Hurt by Hurricane Sandy

Through a “Winter Wonderland” dance, students at Ashley IB Magnet Elementary School raised a total of $170 for The Children’s Home and for a school devastated by Hurricane Sandy.

“With the funds raised, we were able to donate $70 in gifts to The Children's Home,” said Serena Adkins, a kindergarten assistant. “Student Council officers went yesterday to drop off the gifts and were given a tour and learned more about what The Children's Home does and why children have to stay there. I think it was very eye-opening for our students and they had some really good questions. Hopefully it was a lesson they will keep forever and will share with others what they learned.

“We will also be donating $100 to a school affected by Hurricane Sandy with the rest of the money raised.”
