(SPS) - It was a good day inside the Commons at the high school.

The money raised during MAD Week was turned into three separate checks and handed over to Chieftains who could use it.

The Junior High Student Council represented by Treasurer Ryann Hoey, Secretary Brooklyn Berry, and Vice President Jaselyn Rossman presented Sapulpa police officer Glenn Coffey with a check for $1,012.

Officer Coffey has been diagnosed with stage 4 liver disease and is currently on the list for a transplant.
