Mrs. Hays will use the grant to further support creative writing club, and Ms. Zimmerman will use the funding for an additional project in one of her ag courses.

🩸 Thank You for Supporting Our Blood Drive! 🩸 We are incredibly grateful to everyone who came out to support our recent blood drive with the American Red Cross. Because of the generosity of our donors, 25 units of blood were collected, which has the potential to help save up to 75 lives. What an amazing impact our community made! We also had several additional individuals who came in hoping to donate. While some were unable to donate due to eligibility requirements, we are so appreciative of their willingness to step forward and help others. Your intention to give truly means so much. We are especially proud of our students who donated, including several first-time donors who took the incredible step of giving blood for the very first time. Seeing our students show such compassion and commitment to helping others makes our school community incredibly proud. Thank you again to everyone who participated, volunteered, and supported this important event. Together, we truly made a difference! ❤️
