Our 6th Grade GT students recently sponsored a donation drive for the Corsicana Animal Shelter—and they did an amazing job from start to finish! 🐾
The students designed and translated the flyers, organized the entire drive, and even sent emails to request approvals. With participation from 5th through 8th grade students, the drive was a huge success. Together, they collected an incredible 621 items to help support animals in need.
Last Friday, the 6th Grade GT students delivered the donations to the animal shelter in person. We are so proud of their leadership, initiative, and compassion for our community!
Great job, Bulldogs!
