Key Club News
The Outstanding Key Club Senior for 2017 is Katelyn Fennell!  Katelyn has attended countless Key Club events this year.  In fact, she has attended nearly every event we have hosted this year!!  Her leadership was invaluable as she chaired the Thirst Project and co-chaired the Food Waste Program with Alex Adent.  She was the driver to the Soup Kitchen for the Food Waste program and the program has been so successful that Upton started one too.   She worked the Pancake Breakfast this past Saturday and sold $60 worth of pre-tickets!  Thanks Katelyn for your dedication to Key Club, your kindness, and generous giving of your time.

For the past 10 years, the Key Club has hosted a Senior Prom for Seniors at the Whitcomb downtown.  This year was a wonderful success, thanks to the committee and the chairs, Emma Marchel and Aashish Harikrishnan.   They worked hard getting door prizes (45 this year!), making decorations, and advertising. We had a great group of Key Clubbers and Senior residents in attendance. We even had a surprise visit from SJHS Key Club alum, Peter Chen.
