Today MDJH participated in the Annual Terry Fox Walk. Thanks to generous donations from students and families, we raised over $1400.00 to donate to the Terry Fox Foundation, and we’ll add in any donations that come in after the weekend.

It was a great fall day for a walk around Kenny’s Pond. Than you to Mr. Tobin for organizing it for us.
