The 1,450 students of Higgins Middle School and their teachers walked together for 27 minutes Friday morning in memory of the 26 students and teachers who died on Dec. 14 at Sandy Hook Elementary School as well as the mother of the shooter, who was killed at her home.
Higgins Principal Todd Bucey said more than $3,000 was raised Friday morning, which will be donated to the Connecticut PTSA Sandy Hook Fund.
Students and staff who participated in the walk were invited to wear green and white (Sandy Hook's colors) and offer a $1 donation (or more) or donate a card or snowflake.
