Our NJHS and Lighthouse teams are sponsoring a food and toiletries drive for the Family Resource Center! Please bring in non-perishable food items and/or any of the items on the attached flier between now and December 11. The first hour class that collects the most items will win a donut party and a "leave for lunch early" pass on Friday, December 11. See any member of NJHS or Lighthouse if you have any questions!

Students who are interested in attending the home basketball games must have zero tardies AND must purchase a ticket with PBIS points at their lunch.

Tickets will cost 20 PBIS points. Students must not have any tardies on the day of the game for Monday games, or any tardies the week of the game for Wednesday games. Any tardies in those time frames will disqualify a student from attending the game.

When at the game, we have the following expectations:

1. Students are seated in the student section, unless seated with a parent or guardian.

2. No outside food or drink is allowed. Students will not bring in food or drink from local stores.

3. We will use appropriate language.

4. We will clean up after ourselves.

5. We will encourage our team in an appropriate manner, and will exhibit good sportsmanship.

Failure to meet these expectations will result in dismissal from the game.

Be ready to cheer on our team! Go Saints!

Take a look at our focus areas for RAPS in December. This month we'll focus on Respect. In each class every day, students are able to earn 2 PBIS points for following the behavior expectations in this area. Students will be able to use their PBIS points to purchase items in our school store, replacement IDs, and admission to sporting events.

8th grade history students played the electoral college game this week. They learned how the election process works in the US by competing for electoral votes!
