Call for volunteers this Saturday!

Student & parent volunteers: we need you Saturday, May 23rd from 12:45p to 3:45pm (this is a correction from last Sunday’s principal message). We’ll set up for and clean up after a Johnston High School ex-students Memorial Day gathering. It’s a lovely way to give back to the community and honor students who went to classes in the school building we now call home, and later died as a result of their service to the United States. (AND for students to earn sponsored volunteer hours.)
