Jefferson held its first ever Jefferson Ninja Warrior competition with great success! The event, which benefitted Riley Hospital for Children, was held the week of May 17th and was open to students in grades K–6. A $5 entry fee allowed students to compete against their grade level for the fastest completion time of Jefferson's course. In the end, a boy and girl winner emerged from each grade.
The hope is to make this an annual event, with all funds going to Riley. This year Jefferson students raised $1020 for the cause.
