LL Middle's food drive gives Head Start a boost
The class officers and homeroom representatives of Lake-Lehman Middle Level Education Building
held a Thanksgiving food drive to benefit Head Start families in the Lake-Lehman School District.
Students collected nonperishable food and household cleaning and paper products. The drive was
coordinated by class advisors Molly Malpass and Drena Gorgone and Head Start coordinator,
Debbie Maskalis, totaled over 3,000 items and exceeded last year’s collection. The drive was so
successful that Head Start will be able to continue to help families with their needs throughout the
year. Pictured are class officers who organized the food drive and collected food items from
homerooms each morning: from left, Leigh Kosloski, David Walters, Janet Schweizer, Matt Dunn,
