The Houston County High School chapter of Future Business Leaders of America
helped raise money for the March of Dimes with a competition between classes in
the Business Education Department. In the “Penny War,” pennies were positive,
while all silver coins and greenbacks were negative. Students could place the nega
tive coins and bills in the buckets of rival classes, while putting pennies in their own
bucket. The chapter raised more than S2OO for the March of Dimes.
