#BetterTogether: Class Act with Chris Wragge kicks off 13-hour dance-a-thon at Cardinal Spellman High School in the Bronx

CBS2 has learned Cardinal Spellman High School raised $26,000 for its more than 50 clubs through last week's dance-a-thon. Way to go!

Organizers surprised Chris with some school swag and made him an honorary STAR.

We hear from Cardinal Spellman High School Principal Jeri Faulker about the school's legendary band and why it's near and dear to her.

Supreme Court Justice Sonia Sotomayor once walked the halls of Cardinal Spellman High School and was the Class of 1972 valedictorian. 

The man behind the dance-a-thon, Director of Clubs and Activities Rick Quintana, tells Chris Wragge he's touched by the students' response. 

Watch Chris Wragge dance along with the students as they step things up.

We hear from Cardinal Spellman High School President Dan O'Keefe and Hall of Fame track star Simone Brown about the school's more than 50 clubs that stand to benefit from the fundraiser. 

Director of Clubs and Activities, Rick Quintana, has been providing great service to his students for the last 19 years.

Mr. Q, as the kids call him, will be DJing for 13 hours straight Friday. The kids love him, and they trust he can lift the dance to new heights.
