School Reports from Week One!

Here's what schools are reporting from week one!

Fox Township Elementary

Fox Township Elementary has sold 476 cups of lemonade -- and 98% of their school population has participated in this program. LEMON-AZING. They've raised $598.91! They've also had a bake sale with ribbon cookies and their sour face contest is really raking in the pennies.

Hallowell Elementary
Third Grade students at Hallowell have sold 479 cups of lemonade -- and raised $780.05. Every student in the third grade has been involved in the project - - and students from Kindergarten through Fifth Grade supported their reject. There was a special ice cream raffle for those who donated on the first day and everyone raved about the lemonade. Special visitors have made donations too. One of their families even donated $100!

Robeson Elementary School
450 cups of lemonade have been sold by the Robeson elementary school team! Students are especially loving lemonade at recess -- and sales at their annual REC BBQ were definitely swift! They've raised $1305. From their daily report: "Alex is seeing to it that we have been having gorgeous weather for our lemonade sales. Thanks angel!"

Montana School for the Deaf and Blind
MSDB has reported 174 cups of lemonade sold -- for a total of $422 so far!
They held a lemonade stand on campus and asked for a donation instead of having a set price. They had pink lemonade and yellow lemonade, along with goodies that were made by students in their life skills classes and donated by staff members. It was a huge success for their school and the community. From their report: "It was awesome to see our students using the skills they have learned in the classroom in real life situation. We want to say thank you to the students, parents, our school, and our community. We would also like to thank Alex's Lemonade Stand for bringing this project and the idea of helping others to our school."

Spring Ford High School
We had two stands after school to accompany Soft Pretzel Tuesday -- and sold 315 cups of lemonade, raising $225. Students were standing in line in both locations! They were excited to see that students were also contributing money above and beyond the requested donation.

Moreland Hills Elementary
Moreland Hills Elementary sold our lemonade during our lunch periods near our cafeterias. They had pink and yellow lemonade and also sold lemonheads. They had 2 sizes of lemonade-a small for 50C and a tall for a dollar. It seems like pink lemonade was very popular. In fact by the time the 5th graders came to their stand, they! were out of pink lemonade. So they know what they have to make more of for tomorrow! They've raised $1043.34 so far -- and their goal is $2000!

National Dali High School
To fight pediatric cancer, National Dali High School-Taiwan has taken Alex’s Virtual Lemonade Stand Project not only community-wide but also international. National Dali High School organized international fundraising videoconferences with schools across the continent. Thanks to Region 13 Distance Learning in Texas, we were able to hold a multiple-site bidding with schools including Princeton South Elementary School & Princeton High School - Minnesota, Del Valle High School-Texas, Earlham High School- Iowa, and Nicaragua American School, Nicaragua. We’ve had great participations, including terrific Save-the-World Presentations by Princeton S. Elementary, outstanding Varsity Band Performances by Princeton High School, and fabulous Global Concern Presentations & Calligraphy Performances by National Dali High School, Taiwan ! They raised $1200!

Little Flower Family and Children’s Services
Our High School Lives Skills class, home economics class, and a 8th grade class sold lemonade and cookies around the school campus from their roving lemonade stand. They've sold 46 cups of lemonade and raised $83.25!


That's $5888.05 reported raised so far! Keep it up everyone!
