Ms. Hurley's class takes the Thanksgiving Food Drive crown

Monticello High School’s Thanksgiving Food Drive raised enough money to help 101 families in our community enjoy a delicious Thanksgiving meal.

Traditionally, the class raising the most is rewarded with a delicious breakfast cooked for them by our building administration, and this year was no exception.

In first place, raising enough to help a staggering 22 1/2 families, was Ms. Hurley’s class with a total of $1,167.32. Their breakfast consisted of delicious scrambled eggs, bagels, bacon, sausage and fluffy pancakes. The students enjoyed this treat and the administrators enjoyed cooking.
