We had a student vs faculty basketball game to raise money for Relay for Life. The teachers "stomped" the students! Well, they thought they did anyway.....
At the game, our superintendent, Mr. Baker had to kiss a pig. He "won" the Kiss the Pig contest. It was awesome!
Through these fundraisers we were able to raise $500 to donate to the American Cancer Society in honor of an 8th grader at our school who has cancer.
