Pennies and dollars collected for each grade will count as points. Students can also sabotage other grades by putting nickels, dimes, and quarters in their jar, which takes away points.

More information about upcoming events happening with the College and Career Club can be found at CMS 19-20>General Student Info & Flyers.
