Student Thanks Walsh Middle School For Helping Family

Walsh students collected canned vegetables, cranberry sauce, and money to purchase turkeys, as part of a holiday food drive.

A Walsh Middle School student wrote a thank you note to the school to say how much the turkey and groceries his family received from the Framingham middle school’s annual food drive was appreciated.

“My mom has a really big family to feed,” wrote the student.

“The fact that the students here at Walsh turned this food drive into a competitive game, which helped more kids participate made me really happy,” wrote the student.
