The YAMS are sponsoring a Penny War this week at CHS! Pennies and paper money are positive points and silver coins are negative points. Each class and the staff have a jar. Bring your donations to see your class points grow (and donate silver coins to the other classes to bring their points down!) The winning class will receive rolls. All proceeds will go to With Angel Wings, a local non-profit supporting families who have lost children.
Thank you to everyone that participated in Bingo for Books this year. We had a tremendous turnout and great support for the book fair!!!!!

The Canby School District was awarded a grant from the Minnesota Department of Transportation (MnDOT) to create a Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Plan. We are working to identify a list of potential infrastructure and non-infrastructure solutions to help more children walk and bicycle safely to and from our school. This five-minute survey will help us identify which needs are most important to our students and parents!
