SILVERDALE--Ridgetop students served their community in December with an entire week devoted to service from December 5 to December 9. This year Ridgetop Middle School raised over $288 for WE water; they also brought in their own clothes, school supplies, pet supplies, and non perishable food items. At Ridgetop students like to do different games at the lunches so the students can be motivated to participate in the special week. At the lunches students played water trivia, a game called free rice, on Thursday some students from Ridgetop went down to Silver Ridge Elementary School to read to the second graders. On Friday it had snowed the night before so school had to be canceled which meant the water dance and the Clear Creek cleanup was canceled also. Though those events were canceled, they were quickly rescheduled for after winter break. Service week was a big success for all of the students at Ridgetop Middle School, but it was an even bigger achievement for the sixth graders because they won the service week trophy! To get into the dance each student had to pay three dollars, and all of the funds earned went to WE water an organization that Provides clean water to countries that have polluted water.
