Other's Day



Each year at Carter's school, the boys and girls participate in Other's Day. Other's Day is the school's main fundraiser. It works similarly to a bike-a-thon or something like that. Individuals, companies, etc. can sponsor a child and give him or her money. In return, the boys and girls go out into the community to perform various tasks to help others. The K-3 and K-4 classes are the only ones that stay at school. The other classes go to predetermined locations such as the local parks and recreation facilities to plant flowers/pick up garbage. It is truly a way for them to give back to their community! Carter's class stayed at school and cleaned their chapel. It was lots of fun watching them clean the pews and to really take pride in their work! I just had to share some pictures of Carter cleaning away-boy, I wish he'd do this and be this enthusiastic about it at home!
