I really enjoyed the pink out game, the vibes were great! It was also senior night so it was nice to see the parents be there for their kids and supporting them along with the school. The pink out was also nice because we were bringing awareness to a good cause, breast cancer. In the end we won so that’s great!– Junior Carlos Montesdeoca 

 

The His House candy drive was an amazing experience! I donated about 3 bags of candy, while supporting a great cause and earning my NHS points! It was amazing to see how many members came out to support the event and how many candy bags were donated by the end.” – Senior Connor Pierce
