Not every adventurer goes around the moon. These intrepid educators are getting ready to go Over the Edge for ALICE On May 8th. That's the day that Beaver Run Elementary Principal Dave Harris, Wicomico High Principal Dr. Nikki Blake, Chief Finance and Operations Officer Dr. Brian Raygor and Wicomico Middle Assistant Principal Kimandi Binns will rappel from the roof of The Ross down to the streets of Downtown Salisbury. We thank them for their willingness to serve students and families in this unique and somewhat daunting effort.
Today the staff of Wicomico County Public Schools is dressing casual to support the fund-raising of these four adventurers. The money raised by Over the Edge for ALICE, through the United Way of the Lower Eastern Shore, goes to help families in our community who are ALICE: Asset-Limited, Income-Constrained, Employed. Many ALICE families include children in our classroom, and Wicomico Schools is stepping up (and going Over the Edge) to support them. Ours is the first school system in the area to take on this challenge.
Staff members can join this ALICE effort with their casual day donation today and in other ways that we will share soon. And anyone can make a donation to be divided among the four Ross descenders: https://givebutter.com/OTE2026/wicomico-county-public-schools.
(Individual donation links will be shared in the near future. Anyone donating $25 or more to one of our team members through the donation site will have their name added to the adventure suit so they can be part of the descent on May 8th!)
