The people in Ukraine
need our help!
Senior Senate organized a collection called “Rally for Ukraine” where students are asked to donate an item, based on each grade level, to aid the citizens of Ukraine.

  • Freshmen: food items

  • Juniors: hygiene items

If we collect 500 items, as a school, we will have a blue and yellow dress-down day on April 29, the day of the spring rally, where the boys will wear blue and the girls will wear yellow in support of Ukraine. Please bring any donations to Ms. Lanzola’s office.
