OAK LAWN, IL — Although they’ve not attended classes in person for weeks, students from Richards High School still organized a food drive to benefit the pantry at Pilgrim Faith United Church in Oak Lawn.

Students from Leo Club, Class Officers, National Honor Society, and Tri-M (music honors) partnered to organize the food drive.

Band director Jordan Fansler, math teacher Karen Lavin, academic counselor Nick Matkovich, and math teacher Jill Wojciechowski, who serve as faculty sponsors of the groups, coordinated the campaign.
