The students of DVSS have done exceptional in fundraising for the Terry Fox Foundation.
Earlier this month, we shared that the school had raised over $5,000 for the Terry Fox Foundation. Well they have exceeded that total and raised over $6,000. With the milestone reached, on Thursday, October 10th, three teachers offered to be pied by three students.
Principal Dana Yemen, Associate Principal Brad Teske, and Associate Principal Dana Levesque stepped up to be pied. According to teacher Cindy Sereda, this was all the result of hard work fundraising by the students of DVSS. “Our admin committed to a consequence if our students were able to raise over six thousand dollars for the Terry Fox Foundation and we exceeded that with 6,156 dollars as our final total.”
The students were able to do this with their Cake Auction, Taco In A Bag fundraiser and multiple other ways shares Sereda. “It really brings the school together. The Cake Auction is obviously our biggest fundraiser for the Terry Fox Foundation, that we’ve been doing for quite a number of years. This year, we broke a number of records, not only with our total fundraising goal, but with one item being sold for 1,100 dollars, which was pretty incredible. Then, we did ‘Fly On The Wall’ and ‘Taco In A Bag’ and it has just been a lot of great activities not only to support the Terry Fox Foundation but also to bring the students together as a community.”
