M.C. Cash student Luis Serna helped endorse a school-wide coin drive to benefit the foundation. The classes that collected the most coins had the opportunity to see, and sit in, the Batmobile. Funds will go towards the organization’s building of a new Bat-cave. Ms. Garin’s third grade class and Mr. Walsh’s fifth grade class were the two winners, filling ten and a half jars of coins each.
