The Taylor Swift Club has been supporting Project Safe for several years. This organization is leading the way to end domestic violence through crisis intervention, ongoing supportive services, systems change advocacy, and prevention and education.
We are making Valentine’s Day Cards for the people who are staying in Project Safe right now. If you would like to join in the fun and help someone feel loved, stop by the art room (not Mr. Graves’ room) this Friday from 3:30-4:00. We’ll have all of the supplies!

NHS Family Science Night Volunteers
Family ScienceNight is THIS THURSDAY February 19th!! NHS members should arrive at the LS Barrett Hall at 5:15pm. Check in with Ms. Neves at the door to find out which station you are working, and then you will get your dinner. After 15-20 minutes of food and fellowship, there will be a short orientation to prepare you for the night and get you familiar with your station.
Volunteers should NOT park in the PS/LS parking lot, but rather in the normal senior/junior US lots. We need to keep the PS/LS spaces available for the families attending Science Night.
Remember, this is MANDATORY for all NHS members (unless Ms. Neves is already aware of your approved conflict).
ACAD Miracle’s Dance Marathon is Saturday, February 21, from 5:00-9:00pm in the Tillman Center! This is a fun event that includes games, food, and fundraising for Children’s Healthcare of Atlanta. It’s a great chance to get free dinner, hang out, and fundraise for a chance to get Miracle swag like t-shirts and tumblers.
In order to register for the event, you need to create a Donor Drive account using this link: https://events.dancemarathon.com/ACAD26. This will be your ticket into the event, and as an added bonus, it will also give you access to UGA’s Dance Marathon for even more food, swag, and fun.
