This...
really changes my jaded view of North Shore teens...........
The students at Glenbrook North High School were going to make sure that cafeteria worker Lidia Benitez's year ended on a happy note.

On Wednesday, in front of the whole school, Benitez received an early Christmas present: a car purchased with money raised by the students, faculty and staff.

They also pitched in to buy her two years worth of auto insurance, goodies for her new car and a car full of presents for her grandchildren.

I saw this on TV last night. It almost made me cry.
