The National Honor Society's fundraiser to benefit the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) begins March 25! Donations are used to fund LLS's mission to cure leukemia, lymphoma, Hodgkin's disease, and myeloma, and improve the quality of life of patients and their families. This year we have a goal to raise $3,500 between March 25th and April 12th. Donations will be collected during 3rd hour classes, and the 3rd hour with the most donations at the end of the campaign will receive a donut party. If you would like to help us as we support LLS, please send cash or check (made payable to LLS) with your student, or click here to make an online donation. Thank you for supporting National Honor Society and LLS!

If you have lost any valuables, SRO Kintzel wants to get lost and found cleaned out by the end of the year. I have serial numbers on all the AirPods. If they match or you can connect they will be yours. Also gave other valuables. If you have lost anything, get with SRO Kintzel. At the end of the year they will be set on a table for grabbing and then thrown in the trash.

Ambassadors are a group of selected high school sophomores who participate in educational and social programs and activities. The Ambassadors will be presented at the American Heart Association's Heart Ball. The activities will occur during the 2024- 2025 school year.

The Ambassador program is intended to be fun and prepare young leaders to be future heart advocates.
