Mrs. Ashley Walker's 3-4th period English 1 Seminar class participated in a student-led project in which they researched difficult journey's after reading The Odyssey. The students proposed ideas for a class-wide project. One student's research on diabetes led the class to work on organizing a low-sugar bake sale to raise money for the American Diabetes Association (ADA). The class raised $105 by selling homemade chocolate truffles and blueberry muffins, and Mr. John Douglas from the ADA visited the class to receive the donation check. While he visited, he informed them that their donation money would be used to pay for two Columbia children to attend the ADA's week-long summer day camp for children with diabetes. Well done Blazers!
