Raisinville students crochet for cats
June 10, 2015

Several students from Raisinville Elementary School have taken their lunch hours over the last five months as part of the Fifth Grade Cat Club to crochet blankets for cats and kittens in the Monroe County Humane Society shelter on N. Telegraph Rd.  “The kids wanted to provide a more comfortable environment for the animals as they patiently wait to be adopted,” said Harvey (Chip) Jackson, Positive School Climate Liaison at Raisinville Elementary.   Shown here with some of the blankets they crocheted are (left to right) Justin Gromlich, Ethan Binns and Alek Homan.  Mrs. Deanna Homan, a dedicated and very involved parent at Raisinville, guided and mentored the children involved in the five months the Cat Club operated during school.  “We truly value the parent involvement in the special projects we have here at Raisinville,” Mr. Jackson said.
