DeWitt Perry Middle School has partnered with the Leukemia and Lymphoma Society (LLS) through the Coins for Cancer Campaign. Perry Middle School over $7000 for cancer research that will go directly to the organization. They accomplished this through collecting spare change, online campaigns through Facebook, and selling about 300 yellow t-shirts advocating Cancer Awareness. Several classrooms received a pizza party for raising over $250 as a class. One 6th grade student raised over $1200 by herself!
Perry will be presenting a check to the LLS at our Pack the Park Pep Rally at 3:30 PM on October 22nd. It will be on the football field and is always a fun and special event.
Great job, Perry students and staff!
