JHS Students: The Heroes in Waiting Organization(Anti-Bullying Organization) is starting a Teen Advisory Board. They are very interested in having students from Jones sitting on this board. This is the information that they sent that I am sharing out to you:

Each year, Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September 15 to October 15, by celebrating the histories, cultures and contributions of American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean and Central and South America. Join us in learning about and celebrating some of these incredible scholars, scientists, artists, athletes, innovators and history makers. #HISPANICHERITAGEMONTH
