Students from the JCHS chapter of the National Honor Society recently participated in the Salvation Army’s Red Kettle Campaign by ringing bells. Through the efforts of all the members, they covered all four Jerseyville donation locations for an entire day, exemplifying one of the four main character pillars of NHS: service. The donations collected in the red kettle stay local, directly impacting the lives of our neighbors in need and providing critical support during challenging times. A meaningful difference is made with every ring of the bell, and their dedication resulted in a collection of over $1,800 in just one day.
JCHS Advanced Design wrapped up the semester with a coffee treat then posed in front of the community granny square tree they worked so hard on. They are each wearing self-made embroidered holiday sweatshirts. 🫶
It took two of the best at JCHS, Ann East and Amber Isringhausen, to pull Adobe Senior Intern, Ava Deist, out from behind the heat press for this picture. Ava can be found designing all buildings in the district and was crucial in organizing the monster project for 2nd grade. She just wrapped up a holly jolly sweatshirt and is already talking about the next project. Thank you, Ava.

We’d like to extend a heartfelt thank-you to local author **Lindsay Currie** for her generous donation of books to our middle school library. Our students are thrilled to add her spooky and engaging stories to their reading choices! Be sure to check out her newest book, ***The House with No Keys***, a chilling mystery that’s sure to keep readers turning pages.
