The Medina Teachers’ Association at the High School, Clifford Wise Intermediate/Middle School and Oak Orchard Elementary pulled together to help out the Calvary Tabernacle Assembly’s Food Pantry for the upcoming holidays.  Medina High School French teacher Julie Webber says this is the fourth year the staff has rallied together for the church’s Helpful Harvest.  “We asked everyone over the course of two weeks to bring in nonperishable food items.  The church does so much for our community and everyone was happy to lend a hand.  We even had teachers volunteer to go shopping for their colleagues who didn’t have time to go to the store.”

Mrs. Webber says they are very grateful to Tops for donating the brown bags for the staff where they attached their wish list of: cereal, boxed potatoes, peanut butter, macaroni and cheese, kid-friendly snacks, can fruit and vegetables, stuffing, jelly and can pasta and ravioli.  “We ended up with about 30 to 40 bags at each of our schools and it was a great feeling to be able to pull up to their building and help them carry it inside.  They were very grateful.”
