A successful drive

Today was the last day of the canned food drive for the United Food Bank, and the final tally is ....

*drumroll*

... more than 2,000 items!

Mr. Allen's AM & PM programs really stood out. He and his classes donated more than 10 items per student. Wow.

Canned Food Drive

It's Canned Food Collection time! The ECC kicked off its Annual Food Drive today.

From now through Friday, Dec. 11, bring your canned and/or non-perishable food items to EVIT and drop them off in a collection box.

Each class will have its own donation box, and the class that collects the most items per student will receive a $100 prize for their class account.

Extra boxes also are located in the main lobby and in the district office building for staff and public donations.

All of the food will be donated to the United Food Bank, so bring in those cans!

Red Ribbon Winners

The EVIT community has spent the week supporting National Red Ribbon Week, a drug prevention campaign.

Students and staff have been sporting red "Hugs Not Drugs" wristbands, and the ECC sponsored a door decorating contest.

ECC officers roamed the campus today, judging the decked-out doors and bulletin boards. There were lots of great entries!


But when Superman himself shows up with a message, he's pretty much a shoo-in to win. The winning AM design, courtesy of the Early Childhood Professions class:


And the winning PM design, which took up the entire hallway leading up to the Massage Therapy class:


Yes, the prop on the right is actually a student.

Each winning class received $100 for their program. Great job to all who participated!
