iJAG is hosting a Hygiene Drive now through March 27th. We are collecting unused hygiene items such as toothpaste, tooth brushes, floss, shampoo, conditioner, deodorant and other items. We are challenging advisories to bring the most hygiene items. The Advisory who brings in the most hygiene items will win a pizza party.
Please consider donating to our drive. Donations can be dropped off at the front office of the of the high school or to your student's advisory teacher.
Thank You!

Are you obsessed with Dubai Chocolate? Our students are too. Our iJAG students held a Dubai Chocolate fundraiser at the home basketball game for our Eagles to help raise money to purchase MRE's to put with our Service Learning Project of Hygiene Bags for the Homeless! We hope you enjoyed it. Our students worked hard to put this together! 🍓🍓🍓🍫🍫🍫❤️❤️❤️
