The Tobey Elementary Student Council sponsored a Peanut Butter Drive to support Twelve Baskets Food Pantry. The student council got word that the pantry was short on peanut butter and sprang into action. The Tobey Tigers celebrated by having Crazy Day on Friday January 22nd. You could dress as crazy as you would like as long as you brought in a jar of peanut butter. The teachers even got into it by bringing a jar of peanut butter to wear jeans. The Tobey Tigers collected 325 jars of peanut butter. They calculated it was 625 pounds of peanut butter. The Tobey Tigers continue to find ways to “Offer a Helping Hand”. Way to go!
