Pennies “from heaven”, all then 48 states and all continents except Antarctica. Students in Mr. Otto Burich’s Geometry Class at the Arbor Vitae/Woodruff High School were studying the concept of a million and wished to see what a million of something looked like. The 17 students decided to collect a million pennies to donate to the ongoing hospital building fund. In 104 school days they collected 1,700,00 pennies. The students were honored in LOOK Magazine and the Congressional Record.
