East Jay Elementary's 5th Grade represented May's "Patriot Pride Moment" at the School Board Meeting. They described how each 5th Grade class donated their $100.00 start up money from their "Care and Share" project and they held a Team Day at their school and raised an additional $235.00. They then decided to donate their $735.00 to the Jay County Fair Association. The fair is going to use the money to plant trees to replace trees that have been lost over the last several years. Great Job East Jay Elementary 5th Graders!
