Mars students are collecting seasonal items for a local food pantry while others are encouraging participation in a theme week.
The Mars Area Centennial School’s JAM Club is seeking donations of Easter-themed items this week. Donations of baskets, grass, basket fillers, plastic eggs, decorations, individually wrapped candy and snacks, pencils, crayons, markers, coloring books, small stuffed animals, chalk, bubbles, stickers, small games, playdoh, kinetic sand, and egg dye may be dropped off at the school’s main office during normal school hours. The donations benefit The Kilian Cupboard food pantry.
March Madness/St. Patrick’s Day Theme Week begins Monday and runs through Friday in the Mars Area Middle School courtesy of the Spirit Club. Students will be wearing their favorite sports team or college gear tomorrow in recognition of the kickoff of the madness. Other theme days include bright colors on Tuesday for Lucky Charms Day, #bethekindkid or Mars gear on Wednesday for Root for the Home Team Day, and green clothing on Thursday for Almost St. Patrick’s Day.
