Please donate your plastic soda bottles (especially large ones!) to Ms. Sasha in Secondary Art for a recycled bottle chandelier project. There will be bins placed around campus for collection. Or, if you have a lot, you can drop them off in the Secondary office with Ms. Paola or Mr. Kupperstein, and they will be collected. 

The first Hats for Heroes delivery was made this past weekend. It was a huge success. Every hat was cut, pinned, and sewn by a Maya student, parent, or teacher. We have requests for 100s more! If you want to be part of this, NHS and NJHS are hosting another sewing session this Saturday, November 6. No experience is necessary. Sign up using this form.
