Do you like Smoothies? Do you want to help those in need in Japan? If the answer is YES to both of those questions, head down to the cafeteria right after B lunch today and after school to buy a YUMMY Smoothie to help out the folks in Japan! The 7th period Advisement class is making Smoothies for Japan—at only $2.00 a cup, it’s an amazing deal AND you can feel good about buying one because all the money will go to the Red Cross to help all those suffering from the Japanese Tsunami and Earthquake. So, head on down and buy this yummy treat!
