In lieu of a gift exchange, the first-grade at Springfield Public School, in classes taught by Andrea Erickson and
Brandon Wilhelmi contributed pennies, nickels, dimes, quarters and dollars for a total of $212.50 that they contributed
to the Salvation Army to help people in need. “We talked about how some children don’t get presents,
and ways their gifts help those less fortunate,” said their teachers, Andrea Erickson and Brandon Wilhelmi.
