"LETTUCE Show Our Appreciation" Update

The PTA hosted a Staff Appreciation Luncheon ("LETTUCE Show Our Appreciation") last week, which was a huge success! Staff members enjoyed a delicious salad with a variety of topping options and lively conversation. There was even a raffle (see picture for some lucky winners!). A big shout out to everyone who donated, helped with the setup and cleanup, and made this event possible.

Thank you for spoiling our wonderful staff at KJMS!
