A group of 8th graders at Mary Ellen Henderson Middle School didn’t take the bus home on Friday, May 20. They earned a limo ride by completing their algebra homework in the third quarter.

Every student who completed all homework and maintained or improved their grades was inducted into the Ro Pa Sci fraternity. All Ro Pa Sci members participated in a Rock Paper Scissors tournament and the winner invited friends to join them for a limo ride home from school.

Murphy’s Funeral Home donated the limo and a driver from Always a Pleasure Limousine drove the students home after a stop at Mike’s Deli.
