London students and staff face off in basketball game, raise money

London Middle School students and staff members took to the basketball court for a good cause on Friday, December 2. The cost of admission was $2 or a food item to benefit the Wheeling Food Pantry. In total, spectators donated $286 and more than 100 pounds of food.

“The basketball game was an exciting idea to rally our school around a great cause,” said Luis Correa, Principal at London Middle School. “Our students and staff were very enthusiastic to give back to our community.”
