SHARON SPRINGS — Before the Winter Break, there was quite the show of support for beloved, longtime teacher at Sharon Springs Central School, Barb Handy, who is currently battling lymphoma.
On Friday, December 20th, 2024 lime green replaced purple and white for the SSCS Spartans, as the entire community, led by the Student Council, paid an honorable tribute to teacher and mentor Barb Handy.
At this Friday night home basketball game, the Girls Varsity Basketball Team and Cheerleading squad all wore lime green socks and fans even dressed in green to support this valued faculty member who has done so much, to support so many, throughout her 42 year of dedication to education.
This show of Lime green is symbolic since this is the color representing lymphoma awareness. Green is also a color associated with nature, freshness, growth, harmony, and renewal.
During this moving tribute, it was made clear that “green symbolizes life, vitality, and peace” and everyone wishes that for Barb Handy and her family! Go Spartans and GO BARB!
