Inspired by the Fight for Ally Fun Run, Highlands Intermediate hosted yet another amazing race for another amazing cause! This Thanksgiving the entire student body researched and selected their own cause in the community to support. Students made their own logos and wore it to show their support for their cause during the event. Some causes included breast cancer awareness, adopt not shop, and even the fight against homelessness. We had a big rally in the Gym and everyone was impressed with the Highlands Hip Hop Club performance to kick off the event! After some inspiring messages, we all then headed out to the baseball field behind the Gym to the fun run! Big shout out to Mrs. Shirafuji who coordinated this amazing and inspirational event! The Thanksgiving Assembly: Race For The Cause event was a big hit among students and even some staff jumped into the course too! Overall students and staff alike were overjoyed to participate and it is our hope that this will become an annual event… Sophia, 8th Grade Secretary
