🏃♂️🎗️ The Staunton High School Track Team is kicking off their Vs. Cancer campaign to raise money for the Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation!
We are proud to support this incredible cause that helps fund research and support families affected by pediatric brain tumors.
💛 If you would like to help, you can donate using the link below. Some of our athletes may also reach out to family and friends to support their individual fundraising pages—and that’s great too! Every donation goes toward the same mission.
Thank you for helping our team make a difference both on and off the track!

The Bulldog Business Club took its annual field trip on Wednesday, April 8. The group started at Chocolate-Chocolate-Chocolate in St. Louis where students took a factory tour of the facility to learn about plant operations. The next stop was at Herbaria Soap Company where members learned about different aspects of entrepreneurship, including marketing and retailing. Finally, the group stopped at City Foundry STL for lunch before returning to school. Club sponsors John Masinelli and Steve Moore would like to thank everyone who made this year's experiences possible, including local business and family sponsors. Finally, a big thank you goes out to everyone who volunteered to be a guest speaker.
