Pennies for Peace

‘While a penny is virtually worthless, in impoverished countries a penny buys a pencil and opens the door to literacy.’   ~ Penniesforpeace.org 


Last year Ms. Pfeifer and her Mini U.N. students mobilized our school to take action toward improving educational opportunities for children in Pakistan and Afghanistan. They worked together to inform and motivate our learning community to become involved in making a difference in the world, and proved that it could be done! See and hear Ms. Pfeifer share her experiences at about 4:15 and 4:45 of this clip! You can also check out the picture book she describes at the ROE Library!
