- Principal’s Pantry: JEF donated a lot of items including food, hygiene kits, books, and school supplies. We are still accepting any donations that will all go to our students who are in need. If donations are made that need a receipt, they must go through JEF. The canned food drive is going on now and thriving. Question: Are there any students with any lunch balances overdue? Yes, we have a few students with negative balances.
- Flying Around the States: Thursday, Feb 1, 2024. Went over map and sticker design. Talked about the plan for the day and times. It was recommended to have LD at opposite ends of the gym to allow more space.
