Elementary Students To Participate In Math-A-Thon
Cooper Elementary Students are
taking the opportunity to participate
in a program to help St. Jude
Children's Hospital and to help
themselves at the same time.
Math-A-Thon is a program spon-
sored by St. Jude's and is designed
to strengthen the students' math
skills by providing free materials
which supplement their basic curri-
culum. Math-A-Thon challenges the
students to work 200 math problems
at home. The problems are designed
to be fun, intriguing, and a positive
learning experience for each child.
By seeking sponsors to pledge
approximately 3, 4, or 5 cents per
problem, your child and the spon-
sors, will be helping other children
not so lucky in their deadly battle
with childhood cancer.
Cancer kills more children than
any other disease. St. Jude Chil-
dren's Research Hospital is the
largest childhood cancer research
hospital in the world and its purpose
is to provide both medical treatment
for desperately ill children and re-
search that will permanently wipe
out childhood cancer and other
catastrophic diseases.
The encouragement and support
of this program will benefit local
students as well as St. Jude's cancer
patients. Checks will be made pay-
able to St. Jude Children's Research
Hospital and will be tax deductible
contributions. Students raising $25
or more will get a special T-Shirt.
Students earning $100 or more will
receive a barrel tote bag, too.
Parents or community having
questions about the program may
call the school for more information.
If you are interested in contributing
to the program, but have not been
contacted, please call the office of
Mr. Glen Harris. Elementary
