PHS STUDENTS TOUR ST. JUDE CHILDREN'S RESEARCH HOSPITAL

Six Ponchatoula High School students, along with Mrs. Vampran and Ms. duBusdeValempre', just returned from a trip to Memphis, Tennessee, to visit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. Students were given a special tour of the hospital and learned about the services provided by St. Jude and about the on-going research that takes place there in hopes of finding a cure for childhood cancer and other catastrophic illnesses. The Ponchatoula High Chapter of FBLA has donated over $20,000 to St. Jude over the last four years. Three plaques were currently displayed on the Tribute Wall at St. Jude, and Mrs. Vampran installed this year's plaque, honoring Tripp Roth, during the visit.
