Have a Ping Pong Table? Ties to Vietnam? Wyandotte Teachers Want You

Roosevelt High School teachers are asking for donations and community input for new classes.

Do you have an old ping pong table sitting around gathering dust?

Or maybe you know a local person with Vietnam ties who'd be willing to share their story?

While outlining new courses being offered at Roosevelt, two teachers put out a request for help from the public at Tuesday's Board of Education meeting.

Speaking on behalf of the new Advanced Individual Sports class, Rico Pascuzzi said the class will touch on a number of sports, including badminton, bowling and disc golf. Table tennis also is on the list of possibilities, but Pascuzzi said the district didn't have enough tables to allow the entire class to play at once.
