Message from Ms. Koester:

"September is Childhood Cancer awareness month. St. Jude is hosting their annual walk on September 26th.  In Micah's honor we have started a Brassfield team.  I thought this would be a great way for all of us to be able to come together and support his family and be able to come together as a school community.  If you are interested in joining us for the walk follow the link below: The team name is Brassfield Elementary.
