The Terry Fox Fundraiser at Milton District High School this year was a resounding success. We surpassed our goal of raising $2,400 for cancer research and raised over $4000 instead! Almost half of the contributions were from a heated battle between Mr. Fitz’s period two, Grade 12 English class and Mr. Hicks’ and Ms. Hardie’s period one, Grade 9 English class. Mr. Fitz’s class raising just over $1000 and Mr. Hicks’ class raising just under $1000. Since 1999, MDHS has raised over $18,000 for cancer research. All of the students participated in a Terry Fox Walk around the track in October to raise cancer awareness. Great job Mustangs!
