The Magruder Elementary School (MES) Student Council Association (SCA) hosted a "Bucket-filling Food Drive" in April and May. Students and staff collected several carloads of non-perishable food to donate to the non-profit organization FISH in Williamsburg. This week, the fifth grade SCA members took a field trip to FISH, where they unloaded the donated food and then went to work sorting and stocking the shelves at the food pantry. It was a great learning experience for the students, who enjoyed working with other community members to help prevent food instability for families in Williamsburg.
