Mrs. Manheim’s 1st period class shows off some of the gifts given to the Angel Tree effort. They were very excited when they came in and saw the bike and knew their generous donations helped to pay for it!

Students in Mrs. Manheim’s business and marketing classes collected $700 worth of gifts, toys, clothes, and a bike for 2 children; ages 10 and 12 through the Salvation Army angel tree.  The 2 angels were a boy, who really wanted a bicycle and a girl, who wanted some dolls and games.  Students not only provided these things for the 2 children but also provided each of them with a new wardrobe, including new outfits, as well as the basics, like sneakers, socks, underwear, and pajamas.

They were extremely generous this year.  The DECA officers delivered the gifts to the Chesterfield Town Center Mall, where the Salvation Army is headquartered during the holiday season.
