Polk Elementary School

The penny war will run from November 17th to November 21st
The competition will be held by grade level, the grade level with the most points will receive Donuts and Hot Chocolate. Students will also earn fun incentives as the school generates increasing dollar amounts (i.e. teachers singing and dancing, plus a school wide pajama day)

The money raised from our Penny Wars will help support members of our community this holiday season. Our goal is to help 10 children this holiday season. If we raise extra funds the money will be put back into the classrooms.

Please have students add pennies and bills to their grade level jar, and silver coins to the grade level they want to subtract points from. Please refer to the image below for point values.
