Hazel Fischer's "Hat Day For Trey" ~By Christa Dufloth
Arnold, CA....The lengthy absence of Trey Jarnagin has left a huge hole in the hearts of his Hazel Fischer Family. Staff, parents, and fellow students want Trey to know that they miss his sweet personality and his infectious smile around school. Most people want to help, but unfortunately don't know where to begin. Two weeks ago, Trevor and Sean Price, two brothers that attend Hazel Fischer, stopped wondering and put their plan into action. Sean, a classmate of Trey's, went to Mr. Ogden, Hazel Fischer's principal and the VUSD Superintendent, and explained their fantastic fundraising idea. Knowing that Trey is a huge fan of wearing hats, they presented the "Wear your Hat for Trey Day" fundraiser. Each child that wanted to wear a hat at school (which is usually prohibited during school hours) on Friday, March 28th, in honor of Trey, could donate 50 cents to Trey's Medical Fund. The response was beyond INCREDIBLE!! Together, Hazel Fischer students and staff raised over $215.00. Way to go, Mustangs!! What a beautiful and heartwarming sight it was to see the hallways and classrooms filled with smiling faces and hat toting heads all in support of their friend Trey!
