Over $2,300 was raised through the sale of 230 pink ribbon t-shirts and sweatshirts, along with 100 pink packs and generous donations. Students and staff were encouraged to wear pink during the full week leading up to the school-wide pink out days and meet outside the school on the lawn to show their support for families in Loudoun who face the daily challenges associated with being diagnosed with breast cancer. This event was a school-wide effort with support from Monroe Advanced Technical Academy graphics communications students who created the promotional posters for the events and Academy of Engineering and Technology Entrepreneurship students who designed and sold pink out related merchandise through the school store, cuSTEM Designs. DECA students were also instrumental in supporting the sale of merchandise, helping to meet fundraising goals.
“This year’s pink out event was inspiring. Our ACL students and staff showed so much kindness and a true willingness to support those in our community who need it. We are so thankful for all who helped us meet our fundraising goal for LBHN!”, said, Sandra Tucker, Entrepreneurship Instructor.
Get ready to show your school and division spirit and join us for some friendly competition. From our photo contest to the creative ways schools are recognizing their students and staff, there’s plenty to look forward to.
Let’s come together, have some fun and show what makes LCPS so special! Let’s go!
