Teacher Appreciation Week started yesterday and Jersey Mike's lunch boxes and drinks were provided by the PTSO. This morning, students from Sophomore Board and Student Congress delivered snacks to all the classrooms. A big thank you to Ms. Sawyer and all the students on sophomore board for helping make this event happen!
The Signup Genius is still open for donations for Sweet Treat day on Wednesday, breakfast on Friday and school supplies, which the teachers can shop for on Thursday. Thank you to everyone who has already donated either items or monetary donations to our PayPal. We couldn't do this without your support! |
