On the last day of school before break, David City High School students chose to focus on what truly matters—giving back. Students made cookie and treat trays for our law enforcement officers, firefighters, and the REA staff, created goodie bags which were delivered to local businesses, caroled at nursing homes and downtown businesses, and designed holiday cards filled with special notes for nursing home residents and those receiving Meals on Wheels.
