A Day of Cheer & Competition at Eldred JSHS!

What an incredible Friday! Eldred Junior Senior High School wrapped up the week with a day full of joy, leadership, and a little bit of friendly competition before heading into Winter Break.

The Holly Jolly Trolley
The morning kicked off with our Leadership Team bringing the holiday spirit directly to the classrooms! Our staff enjoyed the Holly Jolly Trolley, featuring a wonderful selection of festive drinks and snacks.

In the spirit of our district-wide Leader in Me initiative, the trolley was led by both teachers and students working together to brighten everyone's day. It was a perfect example of shared leadership in action!

Culture Team Activities & The Big Tournament
Under the direction of our LiM Culture Team, students spent the day participating in various activities throughout the building. The energy reached a fever pitch in the gym for our Second Annual Bill Dill Pickleball Tournament!

The competition was fierce this year, but a huge congratulations goes out to James and Koen for being crowned Back-to-Back Champions!

Happy Holidays!
A massive shoutout to all the students and staff at JSHS for making this Friday so special. We are so proud of the culture of leadership we are building together.

We hope everyone has a restful and wonderful winter break. Happy Holidays and a Happy New Year from all of us at JSHS!
