CLARKSVILLE, Tenn. (CLARKSVILLENOW) – Carol Wallace, lunchroom monitor at Norman Smith Elementary School, recently noticed that some children were bringing food and drinks for lunch in plastic bags.
She thought it might be better and tastier for the students if their lunches were chilled or cooled. So, on her own initiative, she set out to get lunchboxes for some of the children who needed them.
Wallace contacted the Clarksville Police Dept.’s Community Relations Unit Supervisor, Sgt. Hunt, who said he would be glad to help. He contacted Sango Wal-Mart and James Shelley from State Farm Insurance who generously donated lunchboxes for the school to distribute as needed.
“It’s always nice to see how people caring and working together can make things happen,” CPD spokesman Jim Knoll said.
