Every year the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society conducts a 3 week program called Pennies for Patients. This program raises funds in order for LLS to accomplish its mission to further blood cancer research and provide patient aid. In 2011 WMS @ Hamlet raised $1,573.04 and in 2012 the students raised $937.46 but this year our students raised $2,004.08! We are very proud of the support our students demonstrated in order to help others who are fighting cancer.Mrs. Rand's students collected the most with a whopping $566.95! They will be enjoying a pizza party. Ms. Hebert, Mr. Ciresi, Mrs. Gariepy, and Mr. Lamoureux's homerooms all earned a silver pennant since they raised more than $200.00. Mrs. Nierman and Mrs. DeSante's homeroom students earned a bronze pennant for raising between $100 and $200. Thank you to everyone who donated.
