Key Club
The Emergency Shelter is in dire need of gently
used backpacks for men. Key Club is collecting gently used
backpacks for the shelter through May 18th. It would be wonderful if
parents could check closets, basements, etc and send them in to the high
school. Thanks! Contact Mrs. Berry
with any questions.

Service Projects
You’re Invited to our Senior Service Project Showcase
Tuesday, May 24th 2016
8:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. at St. Joseph High School
This semester, our 21st Literature and Writing seniors have
been busy designing and executing Senior Service Projects—a real-world project
imagined by students to positivity impact our communities. From
directing a theatrical production to hosting a benefit concert for the
Southwest Michigan Out Center, students have spent the semester bettering our
world.
On the morning of Tuesday, May 24th, 80
seniors will have the opportunity to showcase their extensive learning
activities and outcomes of the community service projects with a formal
presentation. All 80 seniors will present in front of community-member
judges throughout the morning of May 24th, 8:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m. A
schedule of presentations will be available soon. Check with your senior to see
when he or she presents.
We look forward to seeing you.
