The High School Honors Design Thinking Class has been collaborating and working on ideas to present to Coca-Cola. The past two weeks they have been specifically working on ideas regarding the visibility/bundles and the podcast/social bubble. Yesterday the class presented their ideas to teachers to receive feedback for what might work and what needs more brainstorming. They are very excited to present their ideas within the next couple of weeks.

We had the incredible honor of awarding certificates to some very exceptional students, our very own JFG Kids! These students embody the core values we hold dear at our school, kindness, integrity, perseverance, and responsibility. Being a JFG Kid means more than just academic success; it’s about showing up every day with a heart full of respect, compassion, and determination. We couldn’t be prouder of these young leaders for setting an example for others and demonstrating what it truly means to be a part of the JFG family. Keep shining, keep growing, and always remember...YOU are the future! Click the link below for our presentation!
