The PTA is requesting parents/guardian volunteers to help with teacher appreciation week here at SFJHS. It will run from Monday, April 11 through Friday, April 15. If you would be willing to help out providing treats and such for teachers during this week please contact Tiffany Beus at this email address: annegirlbeus [at] gmail.com (annegirlbeus[at]gmail[dot]com) Thanks in advance for supporting our awesome teachers here at SFJHS!

 April 4-H Clubs 

It’s time to sign up for our April 4-H Afterschool Clubs.  This month we are offering Photography and Star Wars. If you are creative and love to take pictures, join our photography club and see what masterpieces you can create. If you love all things Star Wars, then this is the club for you.  Join our Star Wars club today. Clubs start the Monday after Spring Break. More information including the calendar is available athttp://sfjhs.nebo.edu/content/4h Pick up your enrollment form and register in the main office.  The cost is $5.00 per club if you’ve already participated in 4H this year and $10 if this is your first club.

 Last Call for Soup Labels

The Campbell’s Soup label drive is ending in May, so if you have been cutting labels, please make sure and get them into the main office drop-off within the next couple of weeks... Thanks for your help this effort.

 PTA March Madness

What is March without a little basketball Madness?  Join us for our SFJHS PTA sponsored MARCH MADNESS FUNDRAISER, Now throughFriday, April 1st! Please return the parent-signed envelope that was sent home this week to your 2nd period homeroom class with a suggested minimum donation of $5 or more per student. Join us for a little friendly competition.  Our student body has been divided into 4 total teams with coaches so let's see where your team ranks. Thank you for supporting SFJHS and the PTA!

 Spring Break and Weather Related Issues

Please be aware that Spring Break is coming up next week, April 4th - 8th with school resuming Monday, April 11th.  At this time of year with trees budding, flowers blooming and sunny warm spring weather we have found it helpful to remind all our students of a couple of things that seem to increase in April and May. First, we remind everyone to please follow the school dress code and help us set the right academic tone and create a productive educational environment.  Second we remind students that, public displays of affection, like kissing, hand holding or amorous hugs are not allowed.  Again, the reason is to help maintain the right atmosphere where high levels of learning and socially appropriate interactions are the norm. Thank you students and parents for your help and support on these two issues  

 Lobos in Action

Kudos to all those involved in the school musical - Curtains Young@Part! It was an astounding success running four nights with more than 80 students participating in the production. We had the unique and amazing opportunity to beta test this brand new Jr. High adaptation of the hit Broadway musical, which will now be released to other schools. Way to go Theater Arts for putting on a terrific production!
