Student Council would like to give a big THANK YOU to everyone who donated to Ronald McDonald House Charities. Because of your generosity, our school collected nearly 400 items! These donations will make a meaningful difference for families during times when they need support the most.

We’d also like to congratulate our winning class—Mrs. Bower’s first period—for bringing in the most donations! They’ve earned a doughnut party, sponsored by Student Council.

Great job, everyone, and thank you for showing such kindness and school spirit!
