On Friday, Nov. 9th the Middle School hosted the 6th Annual Michael Destino Memorial Scholarship Run.
Michael was a rising seventh grader in 2007 whose life, as well as his father’s, were tragically cut short as the result of an automobile accident.
Last week students ran a one-mile run on the field across from Sheridan Hall in Michael's memory and honor.
It was a special event this year because this is the year Michael would have graduated from Loyola Blakefield, so the senior class was allowed to run the race in his honor as well.
Mrs. Mary Destino stood at the finish line of the one-mile course to thank each young man as he crossed the line and awarded him a Michael Destino Memorial wrist band.
All proceeds from the race will go towards the Michael Destino Memorial Scholarship.
