The change war money will be donated to a local food bank. The Focus class that won the change war was Mr. Trotter’s and they accumulated $59.75. The second Focus class competition was a trivia contest in which the Focus class that answered the most questions won donuts. The winner of the trivia challenge was Mr. Wilcox’s Focus class. These Focus classes will be receiving doughnuts during Focus.
