    Hi my name is Elyssa and I go to Flickinger Elemetry my teacher is Mrs. DeCumen and I’m in 5th grade. My school should win 1000 dollars because my school is safe and the teachers care about there students. Also because our princeable is nice and cares about our school and all way making our school a better place. We need the money because we could use ne sports stuff. Are school has a very cool law system and student couincle. That is why I think the school needs the money.
