PLHS JROTC's Annual Food Drive
JROTC starts their annual food drive on November 1st and through the entire month to help the San Diego Food Bank feed families in need. Donations of nonperishable food items can be made at the Admin office, the JROTC classroom in the big gym, or by contacting a current Cadet or the instructors. Online donations can be made at sandiegofoodbank.org/holiday or through the PLHS JROTC website.
Your Cadets will also be volunteering time through their respective companies at designated supermarkets for donations. There will always be at least two Cadets together for each shift. Contact the instructors if there are any questions or concerns.

Greetings,
Two fundraisers are concurrent. Your Cadet has been asked for your assistance in providing at least 20 email addresses for our campaign with schoolfundr.org. You are encouraged to access their accounts and help with this for the higher likelihood of increasing donations.
The second is donations of lightly used or new shoes. These can be brought in by your Cadets, turned in at the front office or our classroom, or dropped off on a later date to be determined.

We need your help!
The End of Year Ceremony is quickly approaching. The ceremony will be held at 5:30 pm on Thursday, May 23rd in the PLHS gym. The Cadets are very excited for this event.
This year, NJROTC has been able to enjoy some awesome activities hosting and competing in multiple Drone, Orienteering, Archery, Drill, and Academic competitions. They have had the opportunity to take field trips to the Miramar Air Show, tours of three different U.S. Navy ships, and marched in two major San Diego holiday parades. Just to name a few of this year's adventures. All of these events and your child's participation are made possible through the physical and financial support of our amazing NJROTC families.
We would like to have a great End of Year Ceremony to send this year's Senior Class off in style and are asking for your support to make this happen. If you can, please consider donating to the Booster PayPal to help us finish the year strong. Any size donation is greatly appreciated. PLHS NJROTC PayPal Account
