We are so proud of our HHS students who are making a difference in the community! FFA members, along with the Ag Construction and Technology classes, partnered with the non-profit organization Sleep in Heavenly Peace this week to construct 25 beds. The Metro-East SHP Branch volunteered their time this week to help students learn not only how to use a drill press, various tools, and woodworking, but also how to give back to their community.
We are glad to announce that due to this weeks efforts, kids in our area will no longer have to sleep on the floor. Stay tuned for some more exciting news next month as students continue to work with Sleep in Heavenly Peace!
