Kingsley School 1st Graders Raise Money for Skokie Northshore Sculpture Park


See complete article HERE

Sheila Oettinger, President of the
Skokie Northshore Sculpture Park holds a check for $170 presented by the 1st grade teachers at Kingsley Elementary School on behalf of their students.
The money was raised by the students who sold snacks as a way to learn how to make change. Each year the first graders donate the money to a local non-profit organization as a way to give back to their community. Pictured are, left to right, Colleen O'Connor, Oettinger, Esther Kamara and Karen Reid.
