Ramsey Elementary Families Raise Money To Fight Autism


Throught the efforts of the Spirit Committeee at Ramsey Elementary, students and families are contributing to raise money to support Austim Speaks. (I note that Mark Wallace, PA Teacher of the Year in the area of History, is very active in this organization too). Under leadership of members of the school's PTO, the Spirit Committee has re-energized Red Ribbon Week, including anti-drug themes, and a charitable focus. This year, the group Autism Speaks was selected as the targeted charity, and the school has already raised over $1,700 dollars with a basket raffel during the school's Open House, with more fundraising events planned though the comming school year. Anna Majocha and Linda Botti, along with the rest of the Spirit Committee and PTO are to be applauded for these efforts.
