Plan Your Outfits - Color Wars Next Thurday & Friday
The Beverly Middle School Peer Leaders are planning a spirit day in order to raise money for a local cause. Thursday, February 11th & Friday, February 12th we will have a schoolwide GRADE COLOR WARS! Students can bring in $1 (or more!) to wear the color assigned to their grade. Anything goes - shirt, pants, or accessories! The more COLOR the better! All money raised will be donated to Family Promise in Beverly.
Family Promise North Shore Boston’s mission is to prevent and end family homelessness through a family-centered, community-based response. They aim to uphold each family's dignity and strength as they accompany families in preventing, navigating, or recovering from situations of homelessness, and to engage the local community as critical partners in this effort.
Our goal is to raise awareness for this local organization and raise as much money as possible to help support families in our community! The grade who raises the most money will win the GRADE COLOR WARS competition and our BMS principals will participate in an exciting surprise!
We hope many students will participate in this fun and friendly competition before heading off for February vacation!
Please contact Mrs. Nichols (anichols@beverlyschools.org) with any questions.
Thank you!
Sincerely,
BMS 8th Grade Peer Leaders
