LHS HOSA Sports the PINK

On Wednesday, October 17th, LHS HOSA students encouraged all of LHS to wear pink in support of  Breast Cancer Awareness Month. The HOSA students in the photo distributed pink ribbons to all students grades 5-12, faculty and staff.  Stickers were sold and  proceeds will be used to support the American Cancer Society.  In the Health Science classroom, lessons were taught in regards to prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of this disease.  Special events will also be conducted at this week's LHS friday night football game! 

Note:  It is estimated that 26,000 Alabamians will be diagnosed with cancer this year.
