Some 16-hundred students were participating in the Walkathon today, most of them happy that the event will make it possible for students to receive much needed supplies.

The students seemed most excited that if they raise enough money, every student would be able to receive a Chrome Book, that’s a lap top that they can use in class and to do homework.
Each student in the walkathon was given a t-shirt to support school unity and at the end of the walk the local youth group, NEO, was providing a BBQ for the walkers on campus.
