On behalf of the Old Rochester Regional Junior High School seventh grade teachers and students I would like to express our appreciation to our parents: Kelly Horton, Rania Lavranos-Judd, Diane St. Pierre and Christine Winters. With their support and hard work, a vision of the ORRJHS Oxfam Hunger Banquet came to be.

This group of parents made the educational event possible and a memorable experience for our students.  We would also like to thank Annette Brickley, education manager at the New Bedford Ocean Explorium. The research she presented along with a call for action was motivating for all. For all those who attended and assisted in any way, we appreciate the support and willingness to lend a helping hand.

With gratitude,

Kathryn Gauvin, ORRJHS seventh grade science teacher
