JCHS wants to extend a BIG thank you to the Yagan Family Foundation for supporting the JCHS Maker Space and our Woods Program. The Maker Space at JCHS is a place for all students and staff to design, explore and build projects and the CTE Woods/Construction offerings afford students a hands on, real world experience that is invaluable. The donated funds are very special and will impact so many students. We are truly blessed and appreciative of the special gift.
To celebrate the holiday season, the JCHS Spanish department participated in holiday traditions from multiple Spanish-speaking countries. These traditions were the Tio de Nadal (a gift-giving tradition from parts of Spain), La Noche de los Rábanos (Radish carving competition from Oaxaca, Mexico), and piñatas (tradition from multiple countries). Students enjoyed learning about traditions that were unique from their own!
