A tradition that goes back over 50 years continued this past Sunday when the Southern Door fifth-graders performed at the 70th Annual CP Telethon in Green Bay. Nearly 50 students performed two songs on stage and television before presenting a check for $38,343 to the Cerebral Palsy Center. Bridget Spude, a fifth-grade teacher at Southern Door Elementary School, says the individual efforts started months ago, and the hard work by the students every year is always appreciated, as well as the community support.
The Southern Door Fifth grade class has raised over $50,000 in past years. Sunday's 2024 CP telethon held at WBAY TV studios raised a donation record of $1,469,772.
