West Liberty-Salem Elementary uses March Madness as inspiration behind their recent community giving event.  Elementary students and their families donated more than 1400 boxes of cereal for a school wide game of dominos called March Cereal Madness. 

The more than 1400 boxes of cereal were set up throughout the halls of the entire elementary and successfully fell completely in order and ending with the WL-S grand finale in the gym! Specials teachers planned and designed the route that the dominos would take, while fifth graders were integral in the set-up, tear down, and execution of the falling boxes. After the main event, students helped load volunteers' cars with all 1407 cereal boxes that will stock local food pantries in Champaign and Logan Counties.
