Fun Run Update - We're Almost There!

We know, we know, this is the 500th post about donating to the Fun Run. But this is it - the final countdown! For those of you who donated already, thank you! For those of you who donated a second time, thank you! For those of you who reached out to family and friends, thank you! And if you haven't, now's the time! From the hardship fund to learning experiences to getting teachers the things they need to creating an environment where our students do their best work - this funding makes all the difference. We sure do love our community and appreciate anything you can do. Every dollar counts! Go Panthers!
