Recap: During the #Run4Allison marathon, Cowboy fans led at mile 25, so Mr. Hermans finished in a Cowboy's jersey. Late donations by Packer fans pulled them ahead by mile 26.2 to finish the race! What a great testimony to the giving hearts of both fan bases! Thank you Packer fans!! Thank you Cowboy fans!!!

Allison Hartzell is the 10 year accomplished choral director at Coppell Middle School West and is battling Stage 4 tongue and head and neck cancer. Only 10 months after extensive chemotherapy and radiation she has had a recurrence of squamous cell carcinoma. Since being diagnosed only a year ago, she has been fighting this devastating disease with positivity and courage. Her fighting spirit moved West to do something to help! Inspired by runner, West Assistant Principal, Bruce Hermans' creative idea of Run4Allison and West learner's compassionate hearts, the entire school will complete a Challenge Based Learning Project (CBL) to see which football team has the most dedicated fans through donations to support Mrs. Hartzell.
