-

The “T/E FLITE Crew” played against the world famous performanc­e team, the Harlem Wizards, for a fun night of trick hoops and alley-oops March 31 at Conestoga High School in Berwyn. With over 1,500 attendees, this entertaini­ng community event raised over $45,000 to support FLITE-funded programs in our School District making this the most successful event ever.

Staff and students from all T/E district schools turned out to participat­e in the game, including two Board of Education members, Doug Carlson and Todd Kantorczyk, and Board of Education member Scott Dorsey refereed. It was a close game, with the Wizards winning by one point.
