We had our last blood drive of the year in March. We had 46 successful donors, 14 first time donors who saved over 138 lives! THS is a Red Cord school so those students who donate three times during high school get red cords for graduation. We will be awarding those to students during senior awards this year. Great Job!

Monday night we hosted our last event of the year at the Oxford Senior Center. Students planned and prepared dinner, crafts and Bingo fun for their Winter Party. It was a great evening of making new friends and catching up with everyone. It was bittersweet for Mrs G as this is her last one! Students are excited to continue going next year and maybe seeing Mrs G there! Thanks to the Senior Center for allowing us to work with you over the years.
