These powerful words from Martin Luther King, Jr. were demonstrated with gusto when Grant’s 3rd grade students helped Mercy Meals pack food for the Philippines back in February. Each class worked for one hour and were able to pack 25 boxes which will feed 5,400 people. Kids can do great things! Our third graders were thrilled and amazed at the difference they made in the lives of people that live…
