Firestone High School’s motto has always been ‘success is our tradition.’ And one could argue a tradition started by the school’s swim team back in 1989 has been a rousing success. It all began when the team decided to raise money for Akron Children’s because one of their own members was being treated for leukemia at the hospital. Fast forward to 2015 and the swim team continues to carry on their Kids Helping Kids marathon having raised more than $163,000 for the hospital through the years.
