Sanborn Central’s student body rallied together in support of long time bus driver/supervisor, friend, and colleague Gary Goudy and his family. Accumulatively, they have collected $2,020.40 total for the penny war. Outside donations added to this number to raise it to $3,234.03 total. 

The freshman class earned first place in the penny war and will be awarded a pizza dinner and time on the golf simulators at the Back 9. The Sanborn Central Student Council is also awarding a pizza party for second through fourth place classes, which include Kindergarten, eighth grade, and the junior class.

Woonsocket senior Kenna Ochsner, right, is pictured here with her cousin Briley Viktora, a sophomore at WHS, who gave blood for the first time to help Ochsner meet her goal for the blood drive she hosted as her senior project.

While fulfilling her senior project requirement, Woonsocket senior Kenna Ochsner also learned the rewarding feeling that goes into helping others while she hosted a successful blood drive in Woonsocket on Thursday, Feb. 8.

In the few weeks leading up to the actual date of the drive, Ochsner reached out to high school students at WHS to see if any of those who are 16 or older would be willing to donate, and she signed up several new donors. She then contacted friends and family outside of the school to see if any of them would be willing to donate, and again, got a great response and signed up some new donors as well as some returnees. Ochsner then turned to her mentor for the project, Mrs. Carrie Howard, for help in contacting donors from the list provided by Vitalant, the company the blood drive was coordinated through.
