Students at the John M. Marshall Elementary School in East Hampton are raising money for wellness initiatives and the school's Hometown Heroes program through a dance-a-thon. Children are collecting pledges from family members, friends, neighbors, and businesses in exchange for a promise to dance their hearts out on Tuesday, when all gym classes will be dedicated to the fund-raiser.

The Hometown Heroes program honors essential workers here who played important roles during the pandemic. A character education campaign is also associated with the dance-a-thon, in which the students will learn about healthy choices and creating positive relationships during the week leading up to the event.

Those who wish to donate can do so online at funrun.boosterthon.com/v3/dash/7VqX7lYA.
