On November 10, 2018, at 2:00 p.m., a team of Lower Merion School District teachers, staff, students and District administrators will battle the Harlem Wizards to raise money for a variety of District-related causes. The LMSD GOATs will take on the crazy, kooky antics of the Harlem Wizards in the Kobe Bryant Gymnasium at Lower Merion High School, 315 E. Montgomery Ave. in Ardmore, Pa.

The game will benefit A Better Chance, offering students from underserved communities, with a home away from home while attending Lower Merion High School; Lower Merion Scholarship Fund, awarding post-high school education grants for needs-based Lower Merion and Harriton High School graduates; and Lower Merion High School activities.

The LMSD GOATs are teachers, administrators and staff members from eight different schools in the District, along with four students and a District Administrator. The LMHS students on the team say the game gives them a unique opportunity not only to play the famous Wizards, but also to team up with their current and former teachers.

The festivities will include a raffle for tickets to the 76ers, a hotel stay and dinner, a performance by the LMHS Dance Team, refreshment sales and the timeout antics of the Wizards.
