This month the character trait recognized at JFK was RESPONSIBILITY. Thank you to everyone who brought in items for the Student Council/Builders Club Food Drive and showed their responsibility towards their community. It was a close race between our grade level teams and here are the standings for our food drive competition. 1st place was the 8th grade Gold team, 2nd place was the 7th grade Gold team and 3rd place was the 7th grade Blue team! Our 8th grade Blue, and 6th grade teams still racked up points towards our yearlong Celebrating Character Competition so be on the lookout in December for our next competition to earn more points for your teams towards the end of the year prize! Pictured here are members of our 8th Grade Gold Team!
