Bristow Middle School was buzzing with energy on Tuesday, Nov. 10, as students, faculty, and families gathered for the school’s annual Turkey Trot and Food Drive.

Organized by art teacher Jamie Kaminski and the Bristow PTO, this year’s event centered around the theme: “Kindness Has a Domino Effect.”

Students brought that theme to life by donating cereal boxes to construct a school-wide domino chain reaction. The cereal boxes will be donated to the West Hartford Food Pantry to help local families this holiday season.

After kicking things off with a round of competitive Turkey Trivia, students ran laps around the school under bright blue skies. It was a beautiful afternoon filled with community spirit and a shared mission to give back.
