During the month of May, students from Holley Elementary School's 3rd grade partnered with The Arc of Orleans County and held a Spell-A-Thon fundraiser to benefit Camp Rainbow. Students asked family and friends for pledges and then took part in a 100 word spelling test over a one week period. The results were wonderful, with a total of $1,189.15 raised.The top student was Colin Buesing who raised $204.60. Colin is a student in Mrs. Sevenski's 3rd grade class. Mrs. Sevenski's class received top class honors, raising $399.60. They were treated to a pizza party in their classroom on June 13th.
As a thank you, all the students enjoyed a fun-filled day at Camp Rainbow on Wednesday, June 15th. They participated in many of the same activities that the campers enjoy during the summer (arts & crafts, games, storytime); they even learned the Camp Rainbow song.
Thank you to all the students, parents, teachers, and volunteers who helped to make this funraiser and field trip a success!
