Overview: At the recent Fosston School Board meeting, attention was given to a student-led initiative called the Secret Santa Club, which raised $8,000 through independent fundraising efforts. This money was distributed to individuals in need, including Rosemarie Hernandez, who recently lost her job, and D Dre Taylor, diagnosed with cancer and facing financial challenges. The initiative, which emerged from a Secret Santa experience, highlighted the students’ commitment to community service and their ability to make a tangible impact without direct support from the school or district.
