Johnson County Westside School District

During the month of November, the Elementary School will be hosting a non-perishable food drive to help support our district’s backpack program. Each week this program distributes food for the weekend to dozens of students who are in need. The food distributed is kid friendly and can be prepared without much effort for the child. The PK-2 and 3-5 classes who bring the most non-perishable food items will be awarded with a popcorn party on December 2nd. The competition will run from Monday, November 1st through Tuesday, November 30th. Below is a list of food items often distributed, but any individually wrapped, non-perishable food will be appreciated. For competition purposes, each food item brought will count as one. For example; a 24 pack of Ramen Noodles would count as 24 toward the overall class total. The High School FFA will be assisting the elementary with their food drive. In addition to the other items listed we will also collect the following for the backpack bags for Thanksgiving week: Boxes/Bags of cereal Jars of peanut butter Jelly Saltines/Ritz crackers Cans of pringles Any Donations will be appreciated and can be sent down to the Ag Building. I can send kids to pick up any donations. Thank you in advance for supporting our school! ramen noodles pudding cups mashed potato cups canned soup (with pop top) macaroni and cheese cups fruit snacks pop tarts ravioli (with pop top) vienna sausages cereal (small boxes) peanut butter and crackers granola bars cheese and crackers microwaveable popcorn fruit cups #jcwestside #westsiderebels #meetthechallenge

Westside Elementary Fresh Fruit and Vegetable Program Your child is offered fresh fruit or vegetables approximately 3 days a week. This program is to introduce your children to new and different fresh fruits and vegetables and sometimes just fruits and vegetables that are their favorites! Teachers receive a paper with information that is interesting about the fruit or vegetable of the day. We do get feedback about how the children like what we serve. Westside is proud to have this program. #westsiderebels #jcwestside #meetthechallange
