Thanks to small sacrifices made by Johnson High School students, 275 people in Sierra Leone have more access to drinking water. Students in the Johnson International Scholars Academy at the high school recently participated in a project organized by their world area studies teacher Megan Middleton. The project raised $1,300 to help rebuild a well in Sierra Leone, a nation in western Africa.
