Fallbrook Homeschool Academy students collect food items for the Fallbrook Food Pantry

FALLBROOK – During the months of January and February, the individual classes (kindergarten to sixth grade) at Fallbrook Homeschool Academy collected canned food and boxed goods as part of a class competition fundraiser to donate to the Fallbrook Food Pantry.

Ms. Shafer's third grade class won the competition, contributing 230 of the total 763 canned/boxed goods donated. Mrs. Chaffin's first-second combination class won second place and third place was won by Mrs. Turley's kindergarten class.

Each classroom won something for participating, but the winning class was allowed to decorate their teacher's hair and choose accessories for the day – a fun event for all involved!

On March 20, students were asked to come to the school to help load up the canned/boxed goods to deliver them to the Fallbrook Food Pantry. The director of the pantry, Jennifer Vetch, was there with her staff to help guide the students as they unloaded the goods. It was an excellent experience for all students involved to have a hands-on moment of giving back to the community they live in.

Fallbrook Homeschool Academy is located at 400 W. Elder St.
