Randy Nelson and his team of good-hearted volunteers and donors -- including the Cyclones of Corwin International Magnet School -- have generously provided a holiday party, complete with gifts, food and drink, fun activities and more.

In anticipation of Veterans Day, and as a precursor to tonight's 6 p.m. Pride and Patriotism ceremony at Memorial Hall, scholars at Bessemer Academy and Park View Elementary expressed their appreciation to local veterans as well as all who served.

The pre-K through fifth graders join the fight against the disease by donating a quarter or more each day of Breast Cancer Awareness Week in order to participate in the themes, which this year were “Be a Hero of Hope,” “Knock the Socks Off Cancer,” “Pair Up Against Cancer” and “Team Up Against Cancer.”

Kindergarteners focused on animals and their habitats; first graders visually created their own country; second graders engaged in a Market Day, to learn the ins-and-outs of entrepreneurship and commerce; third and fourth graders explored careers, with a rotation of guest speakers in a variety of fields visiting the school; and finally, fifth graders explored the cosmos through a unit entitled Patterns in the Universe.
