Mrs. Torrez's 5th grade class partnered up with Bent County Extension Office to help find recipes that are affordable and are easy to make. They were given a list of commodities that someone will typically get at the food pantry along with items that are staples in most households. From these lists, they researched recipes that would best fit these lists and then created a cookbook.
The 5th grade class sold 25 cookbooks for $10 each and presented Sharon Barber a check for $250 as a donation to Helping Hands, the local food pantry in Las Animas. During the presentation, Mrs. Barber shared with the class that she had been doing the food pantry for 20 years.
You can find more information on the food pantry at: https://lasanimashelpinghands.org/ or follow their Facebook Page at https://www.facebook.com/LasAnimasHelpingHands/

LAES Hot Topics for 3/14:


Jump Start Learning Center accepting new applications!

HECTOR of the Week
JH - James Linenberger-James shows HECTOR all the time. He is very tolerant and respectful. He is a very good student, and he works very hard in sports. He always has a good attitude and a smile on his face. He has a great sense of humor and is a lot of fun to be around.
Staff - Mrs. Ensong is my choice for HECTOR of the week. She is a caring teacher who is constantly striving to deliver the best possible instruction for her students. She uses satay to drive her decisions and she is a strong member of her grade level team, and an incredibly fast learner. Mrs. Ensong is a perfect example of what it means to be HECTOR.
HS - Kree Wallace: Kree has been a star in ensuring his basketball schedule and his school schedules are caught up. He consistently turns in excellent work, is optimistic, and every time we see him, he seems to have grown another foot. Stop it! Keep up the great work!
