Creek Clean
Builders Club organized a fantastic service activity for our community yesterday after school. Members of NJHS partnered with Builders Club and together they picked up trash & debris from a local creek. This creek clean is just one example of our clubs making a positive impact to our school community. It's not too late to sign up for a club and start making a difference today!
Thank You, Custodians!
Our team of custodians work tirelessly behind the scenes to keep our hallways, classrooms and cafeteria clean, safe, and welcoming for our students and staff. Their hard work and dedication ensure our school runs smoothly. We are deeply grateful for everything they do to make our campus a place we can all be proud of!
