Crestview information

On Tuesday, December 18, Crestview Middle School students participated in a day of caring and sharing to celebrate the holiday season.

Students traveled to Wal-Mart to purchase gifts for local families. Students were asked to generate funds by doing extra work and chores at home.  Upon returning to Crestview, students wrapped gifts, decorated classrooms, and iced cookies.

Students also shared their vocal talents by traveling to the Vancrest Care Center in Convoy to spread holiday cheer by caroling with residents of the center.

The day culminated with students enjoying a holiday movie in the Crestview auditeria.

The project provided students with an opportunity to directly contribute to the community and see how many working together can have a tremendous positive effect on society.

Middle school teachers who guided the project include Ben Hotmire, Owen Pugh, Jason Cross, Trent Kreischer, Diane Wilson, Hannah Phlipot, Deanna Ray, Matt Perkins, Amy Tomlinson, Jeremy Best, James Lautzenheiser, and Middle School Principal Dave Bowen.

Crestview Middle School students and staff would like to thank Walmart for the donation of wrapping paper, tape, and bows for the project.
