They decided to collect what they call "patriotic writers and student submissions.If you're coins," any loose change that they could gather from their neighbors, family, friends and fellow students. All of the interested, stop by the office. (3-109) coins were put into a sack and half was donated to the local chapter of the American Red Cross. The other half of the money was donated to Rochester firefighters to be used by them to help make children in our community safer. "I'm extremely proud of the students of No. 12 School," said Chief King. "The events of September 11 have had a pro- found effect on every one of us and it's such a pleasure to be with a group of children who've reacted in such a positive and inspirational way in the aftermath of the tragedy." No. 12 School students have a special relationship with the firefighters who work at the Quint and Midi 3 Fire Station, just a few blocks south of the school. The firefight- ers have been reading to the students faithfully each Thursday, as part of the Rochester Fire Department's Adopt- A-School Program. The program gives the firefighters a chance to be positive role models for the children and they thoroughly enjoy the opportunity to interact with them.
