Fundraisers

We have the power as educators to lead our students into becoming great students, but more importantly amazing people.  Finding a cause, joining together as a school, and attacking something worth fighting for is one of the most powerful things we can do in the entire world.  It doesn't matter it's for a health-related cause, a family that is in need of help, or a local fundraiser.  The only thing that matters is that we rise up together as a team fighting for the same cause.  I may be only one man, one teacher, one individual in this world, however I know and fully believe the power that helping others has on our own lives.  There is always someone in need and we as educators are truly superheroes!  I salute all of you who take on a fundraiser, a collection, and even make the effort to help someone.  

American Heart Association

When I started my career at my current school, I entered the gym and noticed banners hanging.  Little did I know that I would be helping carry on a solid tradition for the past 13 years.  ​I've been keeping the Jump Rope for Heart fire burning for the last 13 years and I can't imagine my program without it!  I had the privilege of continuing a tradition that was started in 1998 and it has been a lot of fun making it bigger and better each year.  The power this event has towards promoting health and fitness while promoting school togetherness towards and amazing cause is unmatched.  Our school has raised over 250 Thousand-Dollars since 1998!  That's over 250K!  Just think about how many people that has helped through the funding of research, medicine, and health awareness.  I couldn't be more proud to be at the helm of such an adventure and I look forward to each year coming up with new and engaging ways to challenge students, encourage donations, and involve our community.  Get your ropes turning, your hearts racing, and your banners hanging this year!
