Students at Woodland Heights Elementary have been working hard to spread Christmas cheer around the world.
Mrs. Mayo’s class, above, are pictured with over 500 Christmas cards that are now on their way to Washington, D.C. for Holiday Cards for Heroes. Through this program, the cards will be sent to Armed Forces stateside and overseas as well as those in military hospitals.Below are students holding boxes they put together that will benefit kids around the world in the Operation Christmas Child program. Through Operation Christmas Child, churches, individuals and other groups fill empty shoeboxes with toys, school supplies and hygiene items for impoverished children worldwide. Since 1993, Operation Christmas Child has collected more than 100 million shoebox gifts and delivered them to needy children.
Woodland students have prepared 22 boxes for the Operation Christmas Child program. Pictured below are (back row, left to right) Max Guillermo, JC Hughes, Michael McNeally, Jordan Walston, (front row, left to right) Miracle Calvin, Kamyrn Williams, Reagan Kittrell, Leila Rivera and Gavin Burchett.
