Thank you to Ramshackle Brewing Company for your generous donation! As a result, Jonesville High School was able to purchase some new Aquatic D-Frame Dip Nets for our Limnology and Environmental Chemistry classes. Students have been able to collect a variety of Macroinvertebrates in the St. Joe River and in the Campus Pond. We have identified several Mayfly, Dragonfly, Damselfly, pouch snails, clams, scuds, midge larvae, water beetles, and leech species.
A big thank you to Ramshackle Brewing Company for supporting its community schools!
Mr. Shaffer, the art teacher of Williams Elementary, visited JHS to demonstrate his expertise on the pottery wheel and share some of his art with Mrs. Sundberg's Sculpture class.
Thank you, Mr. Shaffer!
Mr. Stanton and Mrs. McKelvey took 53 students, who are currently enrolled in Government class, to attend the Court Community Connections program on Tuesday, April 26, 2022. The Court heard Supreme Court Case No. 162833, People of the State of Michigan v David Allan Lucynski.
While this was a fun trip for students, it was extremely educational as students were able to witness the process of appellate courts and the judicial system firsthand.
The Jonesville Mission Church will have their fresh food giveaway at 501 Olds St. tomorrow (4/27). All community members are welcome!
