On April 6th, 2024 the Calumet City Mayor Thaddeus Jones and the Alderman was there with Shrum Middle Schools principal, assistant principle, and their boys basketball team buying them shoes for completing a milestone in boys basketball and staying on track.
The 7th grade boys won State Champions in the Illinois State Championship and the 8th graders took home 3rd in State. The team was honored and was able to go up to Footlocker to celebrate their wins and get a free pair of kicks. Their Coach Mr. Deere was honored with 2024 IBCA coach of the year! Congratulations to Shrum Middle School’s Basketball team.
