Principals take the plunge for a good cause

By

All four of Manchester's middle school principals -- Mr. McCafferty of Hillside, Mr. Krantz of McLaughlin, Mrs. Gillis of Southside, and Mr. Ransdell of Parkside -- braved the ice cold Atlantic Ocean on February 7 and raised money for Special Olympics New Hampshire.

The 17th Annual Penguin Plunge fundraiser was to benefit Special Olympics New Hampshire. Hundreds of participants run into the water at Hampton Beach every year as individuals or teams.

Our middle school principals raised $1,855! They say they are ready to do it again and bring along the assistant principals in 2017!
