100 Onions Grown By Maine 5th Graders Stolen

One hundred onions were reported stolen from a 5th grade class in Maine. This will all end in tears.

According to WFTV, students at the Albert S. Hall School in Waterville Maine went out last week to harvest the yellow onions planted last spring, and what they found was that they were stolen.

It was supposed to be a lesson in growing your own food, healthy eating and helping the less fortunate. Instead, a group of Maine fifth-graders got a lesson in the harsh realities of life. Their plan was to give half the onions to a homeless shelter and half to the school kitchen to be used in school lunches."

Apparently the missing onions are getting turned into another lesson about coming together when things don't go just right.
