Thank you to those who donated blood yesterday. We met & surpassed our goal of 30 pints. Total # of 35 donors! A BIG thank you to our students & the community members to bring the gift of life to others. Remember "Tears of a parent cannot save their child, but your blood can."





JH Girls BB practice will end @ 5:00 tomorrow (Thurs, 10-31).
BB T-Shirt order forms are due tomorrow as well.

This is Mr. Hancock, I want to invite the COMMUNITY to today's blood drive as 'walk-ins' are welcome. I cannot stress the importance of giving blood. Personally, it saved my daughter's life as she was battling leukemia. Please find time to donate, lives depend on it. Thank you.


Today is the Blood Drive from 11:30 - 5:00 pm. in the South Gym.

This week is School Bus Safety week. And we would like to thank all of our transportation employees and Bus Drivers for keeping our students safe. A special thank you to Bill Logan for keeping our buses in tip top shape throughout the school year.
School bus transportation plays a critical role in the education of our nation's students, and is the direct link between a neighborhood and the classroom. More than 25 million children ride the yellow bus every school day, and National School Bus Safety Week serves as a reminder for students, parents, teachers, and the community to keep school bus safety in the forefront.


The Booster Club will be sponsoring a Taco Feed Tailgate at the game on Friday night starting at 5:30. There are two meal deals: $6.00 for Taco Salad or $4.00 for a Walking Taco. Both include Cookies and a bottle of water. See you at the Game!!!

Reminder: Student-Led Conferences begin tomorrow @ 4 p.m. until 8 p.m. & on Thurs. 7-12 students are presenting on their current Individual Plans of Study. Parents/Guardians should have received a form in the mail. If not, please contact the HS office or your child's adviser.
