Thank you to the community, including parents, local businesses, and especially the students for all of their help with the St. Jude Mathathon at Washington Junior High School! This year they raised $4,729 for a three-year total of $13,060! The total is truly amazing in a small community, and it shows the great amount of compassion and generosity in our local area! Here is the link to the Mathathon home page to see final team and individual totals: https://fundraising.stjude.org/site/TR/Math/Math?fr_id=136909&pg=entry
