Curtis Wilson Primary School and Academy Principal, Heidi Dowell, dumped a bucket of ice water over her head during a school assembly this week. Once the cheering stopped, students learned a bit about Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). Mrs. Dowell explained scientists and doctors are working hard to find a cure for the disease. She challenged all students to participate in the Ice Bucket Challenge to raise awareness and money for ALS research. This morning, Curtis Wilson Primary School and Academy students did just that and collected over $1200 for the cause!
