Angel Tree
The staff and students at North Pontotoc Upper Elementary recently completed their annual Angel Tree competition. Angel Tree funds are used to purchase Christmas gifts for families in need in our community. For the competition, teachers choose their favorite collegiate team and raised money in their teams name for Angel Tree. There were three groups of teachers this year. Team MSU, Ole Miss and Bama. The team that raised the most money won and the two losing teams had to wear the winning team's colors to school. This year, Team MSU won and the teachers on both Ole Miss and Bama teams wore maroon to school on Friday, November 18. In total, teachers, students, and other donors contributed over $2200 to Angel Tree this year!
