Change War & Penny War

The Plymouth Education Foundation is sponsoring a pair of fundraisers Sept. 30-Oct. 4 in conjunction with PHS Homecoming to benefit its Teacher Wishlist Fund:
• Elementary Change War: Coins will be collected in the elementary school offices for each grade. The grade that collects the most money during the week will win a treat.
• Riverview Penny War: Coins will be collected in the office for each grade. A penny is worth 1 point, but other classes can deposit silver coins to deduct points (a nickel is minus 5 points, a dime is minus 10, a quarter is minus 25). The winning grade will receive a treat.
