Middleton Middle School students presented their winter leadership activities to the board, detailing a dance fundraiser and service projects.
Students including Kaylin Pinnell, Ricky McCullough and Tommy Johnson explained that a winter dance — featuring food, entertainment and a DJ — raised $1,700 that funded holiday shopping for two families who could not afford Christmas. Students described organizing the shopping, wrapping and delivery process, making handmade cards for cottage residents, and singing carols. The group also outlined roles they take on at school (running dances, assemblies and other events) and said their work has inspired peers to join leadership.
Board members and administrators thanked the students and teachers (including staff member Christy Johnson) for the presentations and community service. The board encouraged students to sign in for recognition and commended parents for support.
Next steps: the board acknowledged students and invited them to collect signatures on the agenda; no formal action was required.
