This year, our JES Student Lighthouse Team is participating in the "Socktober Drive" to help collect socks to donate to those in need. Please help them by donating a pair of new, warm socks between October 20th and October 31st. Students can bring in socks anytime during the next two weeks and drop them off in Mrs. Nosovsky's room, room 309. All socks collected will be given to a local organization that helps those in need.
