Part of the March For A Cure Challenge was for individual LYSers to conduct 200 PowerWalks observations in a month.  This was an “Above and Beyond” call to action. But in spite of weather days, Spring Breaks, Easter, state testing, lunch duty….  Twenty LYSers stepped up their commitment to instructional leadership and met the challenge.

With great pride and reverent awe, LYS Nation here are your Twenty Cancer Fightin’ PowerWalks Heroes!
