A very successful #OneSchoolOneCommunity #TrunkOrTreat 🎃 event gave our National English Honor Society the privilege of handing over a $1000 check to Worcester Public Libraries representative Jennifer Ranck (#SDHSAlum)!
Many thanks to the community members who came out in full support and enabled us to raise the money for such a great cause.
