St. Augustine students and staff wear Hats for a Hero
Students and teachers at St. Augustine of Canterbury School wore hats to school on April 29, donating a dollar for each hat to the family of local hero, Officer Jon Brough.
With this and other small fundraisers, St. Augustine students have raised over $1,000 for Officer Brough through the course of the school year.
Brough was blinded by a double-murder suspect in 2006, and has faced several surgeries to reconstruct his face.
