Glen Rock Principal Helps Kids Develop Their Own Superheroes
Christopher Barron was a Glen Rock student who died from leukemia in 2007 when he was 9. A foundation was created in his memory.
Glen Rock High School principal, John Arlotta, spent time with Paterson's School 21 fifth graders one morning helping them to develop their own original comic strips as part of The Christopher Barron Live Life Foundation Comic Book Creation workshops -- "Christopher's Comic Book Inspirations."
The Christopher Barron Live Life Foundation mission is to honor the life of Christopher Barron who died in 2007 at the age of 9 from leukemia and to instill his compassion and zest for life by offering underserved children unique opportunities to live life and pursue interests about which Christopher was most passionate.
