Summer Send Off Wrap Up
We had a great week celebrating the end of the school year. The Student Council and Class councils would like to thank all students and staff for their participation. Here’s a summary of what took place during the week.
Class murals were created by each class and judged by the art department. The seniors took first place! Juniors followed in second place.
Staff voted on their favorite Tshirt - The sophomores came out on top, followed by the seniors.
We saw students and staff dress up in red, white and blue on Monday and Tuesday and then in class colors on Wednesday and Thursday. The freshman had the highest percentage of their class participate by dressing up each day. The sophomores came in second place.
Our annual Can Jam food drive brought in donations that will be going to support The Goodness Initiative which fills the community stands in the greater Rochester area. Sophomores came in first with their generous donations, closely followed by Freshmen.
For overall participation in Summer Send Off, the Spirit Stick goes to . . . . The Class of 2024!!!
