Next week, the Alexander Public School High School Student Council will be hosting a Hat Week Fundraiser in memory of Riley Woods, an APS graduate who passed away unexpectedly.
Students may participate by paying $2 per day to wear a hat or $5 for the entire week. All proceeds will go directly to the Woods family to help with funeral expenses and any other needs they may have during this difficult time.
If you would like to contribute but do not wish to wear a hat, donations are also greatly appreciated.
This is an opportunity for our Comet family to come together and show support, compassion, and kindness for one of our own. Thank you for helping us honor Riley's memory and support the Woods family.
💙 $2 per day

💙 All proceeds benefit the Woods family
Please keep the Woods family in your thoughts during this difficult time. ☄️
