We have many field trips and award ceremonies scheduled, and we appreciate our Rampello volunteers con nued support with a endance, and chaperoning . Thank you to all the families who a ended our MEGA Night/ Band BBQ. The BBQ was very successful in raising money for our Pirate Band & Orchestra programs. A special congratula ons goes out to 8th grader Chris an Suarez, who won a YEA! Award (Youth Excellence and Achievement Award) in the category of Middle School Volunteer or Community Service, from the Hillsborough County Board of County Commissioners. We are so proud of you and your con nued service as a tutor and NJHS leader! As we close out the year, please remember, we value our instruc onal me, and just because it’s the end of the year does not mean our students stop learning. Our teachers will work diligently un l the very last day to ensure that our crew is prepared for the coming school year in August. Have a safe and wonderful summer!! Liz Uppercue
