Class shirt distribution is going on early this week. Tuesday is for Sophomores and Freshmen to pick up their shirts at lunch. Senior and Junior shirts were distributed today at lunch. If your student did not get their shirt today they will be doing all classes on Wednesday. After that shirts will be delivered to the correct students.

Checks can be taken to the bank or mailed to Kensington Valley Credit Union, 290 N. John Street Highland, MI 48357.

Lions Club Youth Exchange Program

The Lions of Michigan Youth Exchange Program offers summer opportunities for youth to travel as a cultural exchange and expand their knowledge of family and community life in other cultures around the world. Students between the ages of 16 and 21 are eligible to participate in the program. Knowledge of the language is not mandatory in most countries. This is a 4-6 week experience in which the student will stay with a host family, all of which are either Lions Club families or approved by the Lions Club. Financial assistance may be available to defray the costs of transportation. This is a time limited window of opportunity to apply. For more information contact Shawn Blaszczyk at nhlionsblas@aol.com or call 248-752-0365.
