The timing was great because it was right before the Marmaton Massacre (Mountain Bike)Race. The money they raised will go toward their Senior Trip in the spring.”
The Fort Scott Christian Heights School is located at 1101 S. Barbee in Fort Scott, KS and offers Preschool-12th grade classes, and can be reached by phone at 620.223.4330.
