Penny Wars
November 2nd – November 18th
The team with the most positive points at the end of the wars wins a pizza party and a movie on November 25th.
All proceeds will benefit local charities (ie. Food shelf and the Little Sisters of the poor). Last year we raised $2576.69 which was divided between three local charities: Sisters of the Poor, Enfield Food Shelf and Loaves & Fishes. Let’s see if we can raise $3000 this year.
Penny Wars Rules
How to play
During lunch bring in pennies or paper money and fill up your team’s buckets, to earn points to win a movie and pizza party for your team on November 25th. The team with the most positive points at the end of the war wins.
You can also sabotage another team by placing all other forms of change like nickels, dimes and quarters in the opposing teams’ bucket to deduct pints off their score.
This year we are adding a twist with bonus points for teams with the most money on certain days. Listen to the announcements to keep your team on the winning edge.
We will announce the teams that are in the lead everyday during homeroom B.
Points will be awarded as follows:
Pennies = +1 point
Nickels = -5 points
Dimes = -10 points
Quarters = -25 points
Dollar = +100 points
Student Council will be selling JFK Patriots themed tee shirts with the help of the school store starting in October. Students will have to the opportunity to purchase tee shirts based on the color of the house or the color of their choosing (red, white, and blue). Tee shirts will cost approximately 10 dollars. All profits will benefit the Student Council and their many endeavors.
