MIS is participating in “Pennies for Patients” during the week of Feb. 13. This initiative will help patients with leukemia, lymphoma, and myeloma. The MIS Student Council will be in charge of collecting the donations — if MIS raises over $500, the class with the greatest donations will receive a pizza party from Dominoe’s Pizza. The Student Council appreciates your support towards this worthwhile project — all donations are welcome.
