Forty-five Lyons Township High School students took an icy plunge and raised more than $14,000 to benefit Special Olympics of Illinois, which supports athletes with intellectual disabilities.

LT had the largest group in attendance, and for the second year in a row, LTHS was awarded the “Cool School Challenge Golden Bear Award” for being the high school with the most funds raised.
