During the last week of September, the Cy Falls HS YLPA group spearheaded efforts to raise funds for Childhood Cancer Awareness. They sold jeans passes to teachers and held a pay-to-attend pep rally on Sept. 30. Eden Green, a cancer survivor, was a special guest at the pep rally and led the students in the school’s We are One chant. Cy Falls HS raised more than $2,800 in only five days. The check was presented to St. Jude on the football field on Oct. 1 with Eden and her family on the field for the entire game.
