Submitted by andrea.pond on Tue, 04/12/2016 - 13:38

This year, MJHS reignited their Service Learning class. Both 8th and 9th grade students registered in the class have had opportunities to serve the school and community. For example, the class joined the Miss America Pageant and Shoes 4 Love to run a school-wide shoe drive, collecting a total of 2,714 pairs of shoes. To help the school increase anti-drug awareness, Service Learning hosted a Red Ribbon Week. This included a culminating assembly with a visit from Utah County's Deputy Sean Carter and his amazing partner Havoc.
