Organiser's Description
Student Council would like to announce Pam Olson as our 2025 beneficiary for the Gary Engels Memorial (GEM) 5K . Gary Engels was an English teacher at Campus High School who left a legacy at Campus and in the Haysville Community. In his honor a new beneficiary is chosen each year.
Pam is a math teacher at Campus High School (CHS). Pam was chosen as this year's beneficiary because she has been battling a brain tumor, meningitis, and diabetic retinopathy. To help treat the brain tumor she participated in the Cyberknife program and radiation treatments. She also has been going through a series of injections, laser treatments, and surgeries to treat the retinopathy.
Students love Ms. Olson and many say that she makes learning math fun! She has been at CHS for over 30 years and has taught many generations.
