Northport boys sport heels for a great cause

Northport K-8 eighth grade Clownfish boys are supporting the school’s Relay For Life team this year by stepping into some big shoes! The theme this year is “Old Hollywood Glamour” and the boys are raising money for the event bypaying $5 per day to wear high heels. The Clownfish team leader Dru DeHart came up with the great idea to help support Relay For Life, and the boys have been vying to wear the shoes. The fundraiser for eighth grade boys runs October 30-November 16, and for seventh grade boys from November 27-December 19. The idea supports one of the school’s goals of providing opportunities for students to get involved with their local community efforts and to offer service to those in need of assistance.  Pictured are eighth grade students, from left, Alex Lejeune, Kevin Sanchez, Sevon Cooper, Christian Gilbert and Osmany Venereo.
