PENNY WARS

February 22 - March 4, 2011: Aiea High School's annual penny wars competition was originally set for Tuesday, February 22, 2011 until Friday, February 25, 2011, but was extended another week until Friday, March 4. Throughout the week before penny wars, student association worked to put together advertisements like PA announcements through the PA system and on the television as well as posters and flyers which were hung all throughout the school; resulting in more participation. After the first week of the competition, volunteers from executive council helped do a preliminary count for each class. Then, on the last day of penny wars, volunteers gathered again for the final counting before money collections. While the competition brought out school spirit from each class, all money donated went to a good cause. Every penny, nickel, dime, quarter and bill was donated to support the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. The results of the competition are shown below.
