Proceeds from the NJHS fundraisers will benefit the American Cancer Society, as voted on by the NJHS students. Donations to the American Cancer Society will be made in honor of Mrs. Angie Luetkenhaus (our Science Teacher), in memory of Mrs. Jenny Miller (Baudendistel), as well as our St. Teresa families that have been affected by cancer. Thank you for a successful year and we look forward to serving our St. Teresa community again next year!
