July 8, 2010 - During their graduation ceremony on June 25, the members of the Class of 2010 made a touching tribute to their friend and classmate, Hannah Crossley. Hannah, who passed away after a courageous battle with cancer, would have graduated that evening with her class, and her friends made sure to keep her spirit alive during graduation.

As the members of the senior class were called to the stage to receive their diplomas, they brought with them a plain, unmarked envelope that they handed to Principal Robert Litz.

It was only after each graduate had received his or her diploma -- and all the envelopes were collected -- that it was announced that the envelopes contained monetary donations. All in all, more than $1,000 was collected and will be donated to the Ronald McDonald House in honor of Hannah.
