JH Track schedule

A few High School students attended a Pepsi Tour, stopped by Ziggi's for a refreshing drink, and then headed to Ray Fosse Park for some much-needed fresh air on a beautiful day in March. The next stop was a job shadowing opportunity at Mad Mad's Pizza in West Frankfort, where the students took orders, washed dishes, and served Pizza to local customers. Thank you, Ziggi's, for the invitation and wonderful drinks on a sweet day of learning. So nice to see the students learning skills they can use in the future.
