Councils Plan for Spring Trip

Today, the JHS Band Council and SHHS Choir Council met at the Clark house to plan the 2010 Spring Trip. We split into small groups and researched two possible locations: Portland and Bend. Students searched for hotels, activities, performance venues, and more. After lunch, each group presented their findings and collectively, we voted to make Portland, OR and Grand Mound, WA this year's Spring Trip destinations. After more small group work, we came together to create a tentative itinerary. With the
approval of school administrators, we'll be taking another great trip this April!

Northwest Band Camps

Today, Mrs. Clark and her family went and made a visit to the Northwest Band Camps. There, they spent some time with the first week Jefferson campers--all of whom were exhausted after a week of fun filled days, and ready to make the trek back home. Here is a picture of Mrs. Clark with 7 of the Jefferson girls!
