This morning HJHS Students started the day with a presentation from Cory Greenwood, "Your Story Matters". It was energetic and impactful. Students had a great time listening to some live music but also left with some tools to help navigate through challenging times and moments. Students were all reminded that their lives matter and have significant value. We appreciate and value Cory Greenwood and his team for working with our students this morning!
