This fall, Ms. Westhoff and Center Middle School staff started a Giving Tree to raise money to pay students' lunch balances. The idea has truly snowballed! ☃️ The Giving Tree sparked interest from a Center Middle School family, who is raising additional funds, and this week, those efforts caught a donor's attention. We are truly feeling the holiday spirit across the district this week! ✨
KSHB visited Center Middle School to tell the story.
