Student Banners and School Pride!

Submitted by tara.pina on

This year you all may have noticed the banners of some SJHS students hung up in the commons area. If you haven't I recommend checking them out! 

“I thought they were models!” says Ms. Sullivan, a student teacher to Mrs. Pina. That’s a nice comment! Most of the students interviewed like their banners hung up. It actually has boosted some spirits on their self image! This is a positive change to SJHS!

SJHS Weird and Funny Events

Submitted by tara.pina on

 

SJHS is a really weird place sometimes, and it is getting weirder by the minute. Some of this is because we are always being ourselves. The teachers were asked about their funniest experiences at SJHS.

The principal, Mr. McGuire, mentioned that while watching the school security cameras he has seen a lot of people just stop in the middle of the hallway and start dancing. That would be a pretty funny thing to see. So if you like to just to stop in the middle of the hallway and start dancing, you may make someone watching the security film laugh some day.
