Mars Area High School’s Diversity Club collected $1,040 to benefit the STOMP Out Bullying organization.

During the second semester (January-June) of the school year, teachers and staff members were asked to donate $5 to wear jeans on Fridays. All proceeds will be donated to STOMP Out Bullying, which promotes civility, inclusion and equality by working to reduce and prevent bullying, cyberbullying, sexting and other digital abuse; educating against homophobia, LGBTQ discrimination, racism and hatred; and deterring violence in schools, online and in the community.
