-YAL Meetings are going well. Sophomores are making connection and enjoying teambuilding games that we have been playing in YAL. Juniors are busy with community projects; they made 60 “thank you for your service bags” that the county Veterans office distributed at their monthly luncheon. They will be making fruit bags for December’s project. The Senior class baked up some sugar cookies for this project as well.
