More than 250 Mountain Brook Junior High School students participated Nov. 1 in KICK MS, a biannual fundraiser to benefit the MS Society of Alabama and Mississippi.
Led by students from the MBJH Spartan Council, this seventh- and eighth-grade KICK MS event raised more than $22,700 to fight multiple sclerosis.
Coupled with the money raised in the August tournament that was hosted by ninth-graders, students at MBJH have raised $41,301.78 in 2015 to fight MS.
The “No MS’ing Around” team raised the most money in eighth grade, and “Team USA” raised the most money and won the kickball tournament for seventh grade. The eighth-grade tournament winner was the “Straight Outta Recess” team.
