FBLA challenged staff and students to bring 100 items for the food pantry. For every item they brought, they voted for someone to get a pie in the face. Mr. Rettele and Hunter were the "winners".






What fun celebrating the end of the semester. Mr. Spargo's PAWS class was the celebration winner. The teachers went out of their way to pamper our kids. I challenged everyone to have an "Attitude of gratitude". End every day write down 1-5 positive things from the day.
