Third Annual Trunk or Treat at Jefferson is a Huge Success

Jefferson hosted its annual Trunk or Treat event recently for our students and community in collaboration with Second Baptist Church led by Pastor Todd. Families from the community enjoyed time to trick or treat, visit with the Harding Robotics Team, as well as see our transportation department. Thank you to everyone from Second Baptist and our community that helped make this another great year for this event. Also, a special thank you to Mrs. Vlahos-Hall who led organizing the event.
