Ellis Tech Earns Plaque in Annual East of the River Food Drive

The annual East of the River Food Drive was held in early March, during which technical high schools Ellis Tech, Norwich Tech and Grasso Tech held a friendly competition to see which school could donate the most food. This year, the winning school was Ellis Tech, earning students the coveted “East of the River” plaque. More than 10,000 pounds of food was collected by the three schools and donated to the Friends of Assisi Food Bank and the Feed the Need Food Pantry, both located in Danielson, Connecticut.
