Dean Morgan Kids Need Your Help for Nationals

We are thrilled to share some exciting news from Dean Morgan Middle School in Casper, WY—and we’re reaching out to ask for your support in helping our students achieve something truly incredible.

Nineteen of our 7th and 8th grade students have qualified to compete at the National Level for the International Academic Competition, taking place in Orlando, Florida. This is an extraordinary achievement that reflects months of hard work, dedication, and academic excellence.

We’re seeking donations to help cover the costs of travel, lodging, and competition fees. Any amount helps, and every dollar will go directly toward making this opportunity possible for our exceptional students. Our turnaround is tight: the registration deadline is May 6, 2025.

These kids have worked incredibly hard to get here, and they’re more than willing to put in the time and effort to earn support. They simply don’t have the time to raise all the funds on their own.

Would you consider supporting these well-deserving students so they can represent Casper on the national stage?

Thank you so much for your time, your generosity, and your continued support of youth in our community.

With appreciation,

Sonja Brow and Kim Rickabaugh
