Last week, CMS art students from 1st & 2nd quarter put their art display for the winter art show. The Community Art class also sold art & dog treats to raise money for the Coles County Animal Shelter. They had a goal of $150 and ended up making $376! Thanks to all that came out!
CMS students in first hour art decided to raise money for the Coles County Animal Shelter. They made and sold both art and dog treats at the art show last week. They raised $376 (exceeding their goal of $150)! Today, they delivered the money and got to visit the animals!
