8th Grade Celebration Fundraiser:
The 8th graders are selling Papa John’s gift cards until Wednesday, 3/18. The cards are $15 and are good for a free carryout pizza for every pizza ordered! For example, if you order 5 pizzas you get 5 free! It will pay for itself after just one use and helps the 8th here raise money for their end of year celebration!
