This week, April 13-17, NHS will begin its first fundraiser, Penny Wars.
This class competition (grade levels) runs on a monetary point system. Positive points are earned when coins (pennies, nickels, dimes, and quarters) are deposited into jars that will be placed in the cafeteria and circulating through advocates. Negative points will be given when paper money is placed into the jar of each class. Each coin or bill is equal to its worth in pennies (ex: $1 = -100 points, 25¢ = +25 points).
Students may add to any of the four jars (labeled 9th, 10th, 11th, and 12th), providing an opportunity to "sabotage" another class with negative points. Points will be tallied each day throughout the week so that classes can check their progress. The class with the highest number of points at the end of the week will earn free ice cream for the entire grade level.
Proceeds from this fundraiser will go to an NHS scholarship fund as well as towards "When Sean Speaks," the program featured at Friday's Shattered Dreams assembly.
