Junior High teachers deliver gifts to students on Christmas break

For the second year in a row, staff members at the Guthrie Junior High purchased and delivered Christmas gifts to several of their students throughout the school district. The generous act of kindness was possible through the LEARN2LOVE initiative.

Students are enjoying their day of Christmas break from school. So imagine some the looks on their faces when their school teachers walked up to their front door on Thursday afternoon.

LEARN2LOVE is a program started at the Junior High in the memory of two school teachers, Jennifer Briggs and Heather Wilson, who were tragically killed in a vehicle accident while commuting to school in 2014.

With the donations, teachers compiled a list of students who they thought would benefit from receiving a Christmas gift. The end result saw 26 students on the list.

Teachers wrapped the gifts and with First Capital Trolley donating the trolley service went out throughout the school district and delivered the gifts.
