In November, Vanderbilt's students and staff participated in their 2nd annual Healthy Steps to Honor Vets Walk to benefit the General Needs organization. Physical Education teachers John Schroeder and Kim Steffens taught lessons about Veterans Day and then the students took "healthy steps" during their Physical Education classes. The gymnasium's Hall of Heroes was filled with stars displaying the names of veterans connected to Vanderbilt students and staff. Vanderbilt's educational community doubled its donations from last year, raising $2,000 to support General Needs. The funds will be used to purchase 80 pairs of winter boots for Long Island veterans!
