BIG NEWS!! Terry Fox Run September 25 - Are you ready to do something amazing? This year, for our Terry Fox School Run, we’re taking on a special challenge—and we want everyone to be part of it! Drumroll, please… Our school’s challenge is: If we reach our goal of donations ($1000) some of the teachers of Fort High have agreed to put their pride aside in the hopes of reaching our donation goal. To give students a little push, we’ll have goals within the goal. At $500 Ms. F and Mrs. Sa will wear a hot dog costume for a day. At $800 Mr. H will wear a pink dress at school, and at our goal of $1000, Mr. H will be DUCT TAPED to the wall! There will be QR codes around the building to be able to donate. Also stay tuned for other ways to donate. That’s right! We’re teaming up to reach this big goal together. So, bring your best energy and help us reach our fundraising goal, and let’s show everyone what we can do! Let’s Try like Terry, dream big, and make this the most unforgettable Terry Fox Run ever!
