PLYMOUTH — If you drove by St. Michael Catholic School Thursday, you might have noticed groups of children doing laps around the building in tie-dyed shirts. All 171 of the students enrolled participated in this year’s “Race for Education†where students sent letters to their friends and family requesting sponsors for the one-day event.
“The whole school is involved,†said principal Trudy Nawara Thursday. “And it’s a beautiful day for it. Sometimes when it’s too hot (the students) can’t last very long.â€
