Decades Dance
The SFJHS Student Council worked hard to put on their final dance of the year. The "Decades Dance" was a hit! Students came dressed as their favorite decade with clothes ranging from 50's poodle skirts to 90's grunge. There were some great outfits and the best from each decade won a prize! The Student Council would like to thank everyone who came and give a shout-out to the awesome chaperones, administration, janitors, and DJ who helped bring everything together!

Thirty-nine students participated. To qualify, students needed to find and memorized poems of at least 12 lines. While many students researched poets to find their poems, a significant number of students wrote poems especially for the slam.
