 Our students are so fortunate to have so many caring adults who
share in making commitments to their academic success.
Volunteers help in so many ways from helping at parties and
chaperoning field trips, to assisting teachers, mentoring and tutoring
students, assisting with activities such as the carnival,  and
supporting school programs.
 The volunteers received cups filled with goodies and certificates as a
token of our appreciation.  Mrs. Meade and her talented chorus
regaled the volunteers with their singing.
 THANK YOU VOLUNTEERS FOR ALL THAT YOU DO!

Operation Occupation
 Career week, better known as Operation Occupation was held the
week of April 10th. What an exciting and educational time was had by
all!   Our business partners kicked off the event on Monday with
classroom speakers who told students how they got into their field
and what it was all about.  Tuesday was ‘Vehicle Day’ and students
got to see first hand various vehicles like the Greyhound Bus, Fire
Engine, FAMU police motorcycles, Animal Control Trucks and more.
The rest of the week, the Marines and other community speakers were
here to talk to students.
