Watson Williams Elementary Hosts "Lemonade War" Fundraiser for Heart Health

5th and 6th-grade students at Watson Williams Elementary put their entrepreneurial skills to work with their exciting "Lemonade War" fundraiser on March 25th!

Inspired by the popular children's novel "The Lemonade War" by Jacqueline Davies, which they read together as a class, students sold refreshing lemonade during all lunch periods, beginning with the first lunch at 11:00 a.m.

This creative, student-led initiative combined literacy with real-world application as students used concepts from their reading to organize, advertise, and manage their lemonade stands. Even more impressive, these young business leaders chose to donate all proceeds to the American Heart Association, demonstrating their commitment to community service and heart health awareness.
