Students Together Against Cancer had their first meeting of the year on Sep. 13.

Mr. Redmond is now the new club sponsor, taking over for Mrs. Kelley.

“This year is a bit of a new beginning for STAC as we have many new faces from top to bottom, Redmond said. I have taken over for Mrs. Kelley whom has done a fantastic job supporting this amazing club in prior years.”

The club focuses primarily on raising money for local people who are currently fighting cancer, as well as emotional support. The club’s goal is to support people as much as possible in their fight against cancer.

“We have some new executive members as well so our goals early on will include getting ourselves organized and fully operational,” Redmond said. “Our executive team is in place and our first meeting yesterday was attended by more than 20 students so we are off to a strong start.”

In the past years, STAC has raised money through STAC the Halls, and pink-out basketball events. In 2020 they were able to raise almost $10,000.

“My goal is to build a strong network of student that can come together to to support the community,” senior Kiara Day said.

The next club meeting will be held next Monday, Sept. 20 right after school in room A215.
