Teachers run so dragons can fly!

Congratulations Ms. Gentile!! Thank you to all her supporters!!

She successfully ran the Boston Marathon to help raise money for Boston Latin Academy. Ms. Gentile recently appeared in a Boston.com article and made the CBS news report! On Marathon Monday, she finished her run in 4 hours 34 minutes in record-high temperatures!

Along with Ms. Gentile, we were also cheering a BLA senior, Tucker Gaye, who ran the marathon to raise money for his college education. Tucker also finished the marathon is just over 4 hours. Congrats!

Since we reached our goal of raising $5,000, it will be matched by Boston Rising for a total of $10,000! We hope to use these funds to support extracurricular activities as well as technology for our classrooms. You can continue to give until early June.
