During the month of November, students at ADJ participated in the annual Can Drive. Each third hour class collected canned goods and other food items for donation to our local food pantry.
The class who had the largest percentage of items collected per student won a small prize. Mrs. Aijala's Pre-Calculus class collected 23 items per student and took the top spot.
Once all items were collected, the classrooms each made a design using their collected items. The designs were judged and Mrs. France's 7th grade Social Studies class won a small prize for their design.
We are proud of our students for putting forth the effort to help our community! Great job, everyone!

To finish off the trend of kindness, the teachers surprised the kids with some special treats to show how much they are glad that they are here!
