Crofton Elementary Raises $17 K for Cystic Fibrosis

ongratulations to Crofton Elementary School!
A student “Hop-a-thon” raised $14,000 for Cystic Fibrosis and a “Coins for Kids” campaign raised another $3,294.43. Now that’s impressive!
But that’s not all. Other events included a sumo wrestling match between Principal Donna O’Shea and Assistant Principal Colleen Brusca – a reward to the students, when they reached their fundraising goal -and a teacher’s blue-hair day, in which many of the teachers participated. By the way, that wrestling match was too close to call, so it ended in a tie.
Laura Gordon, whose second-grade son Austin has Cystic Fibrosis, accepted the funds on behalf of the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation.
Congratulations to everyone involved – kids, parents, and teachers!
P.S. If you’re relocating to Maryland, Crofton schools provide a good incentive for you to make Crofton your next home. They’re one of the many factors that make Crofton real estate a good investment AND one of the reasons Crofton was named by Money Magazine as one of the Top 100 Best Places to Live.
