Students and staff at Tritt Elementary sold glow sticks, t-shirts and held a carnival in their backyard to raise more than $10,000 for this year's Relay for Life event. Several other students donated money to dress up as twins and wear hats to school. The money raised will be donated to the American Cancer Society.

"This was an amazing accomplishment for our school," said Shell Jones, an event organizer.
