Alton Elementary would like to say thank you to Mr. Chris Whitten and the folks at Fuel Express for donating hats and gloves to every student in Mrs. McFann's Kindergarten class. Students will be traveling to the pumpkin patch this week, and Mr. Whitten thought he would help the kiddos stay warm during their outing. In addition, Mr. Whitten has donated over $300 worth of snacks to students in the two classes his businesses sponsor. Thank you Mr. Whitten for all you are doing to help our school!
