Garfield shoots “Hoops for Heart”
Students at Garfield Middle School spent the closing hours before Thanksgiving break by participating in the Hoops For Heart program.
According to American history teacher Scott Dickerson, coordinator of the event, Hoops for Heart is “a five-dollar ticket” that raises money for the American Heart Association.
“Not all of the kids are super-athletic, but they just want to come down and be a part of the fun,” he said.
Students participated in a variety of events, including three-on-three games and free throw contests.
The amount raised will be tallied after the break.
