Attention all Nash!  Our annual Canned Food Drive this year is from November 12-16! Every 50⊄ equals one can, and daily awards will be given.  Each student who brings in 20 cans or more will be entered into a raffle for an award, including a free pass to an athletic event or stage performance or MORP. The homeroom with the most cans at the weeks end will receive a donut breakfast. Only 20 cans = one raffle ticket entry.

This year our goal is 10,000 cans and all proceeds will be going to the North Hills Food Bank. We CAN do this NASH!!!!
