Bonny Eagle High School students found a unique way to collect money for the American Cancer Society. For a week, the students put out collection jars during lunchtime and labeled them with the names of the principals. The three assistant principals: Gary Stevens, Lynn Brown, and Lloyd Crocker; and the principal Sheila Jepson. The jar which filled up with the most money at the end of the week meant that principal had to kiss a fish. About a $100 worth of change was collected. The students who raised the money plan to participate in the relay for Life in June. Principal Sheila Jepson's jar was the fullest and she got to "kiss a fish."
