Each year the school has a canned food drive to help local food pantries.  Last year the school was able to donate over 5,000 cans and $4,000.00 dollars for fresh foods. The Student Council along with their School Sponsor, Mrs. Zoe Chin, organize this food drive for the community.

"We want to thank all those who help those in need during the holiday season."
