Peace Out Day Tomorrow

A big shout out to all those who are participating in our peace out tomorrow and a special thank you for all who are going to strike up a conversation about the various refugee crises in the world today. The few facts we shared are just the tip of a giant iceberg. The problems with refugees are very complex. Amnesty would like to invite everyone to our Jamnesty, our annual band competition on Friday, April 24 in the auditorium. The focus of this year’s Jamnesty will be to raise more awareness about refugee crises. We have an amazing video to show you during intermission. Bands prepare and spectators mark your calendars for Jamnesty, April 24. Finally, Mr. Jannke was the fugitive and Miquela Velez was the first to identify him. Peace out everyone and see you on April 24!

  • The fugitive is a member of the LHS faculty 
  • Only students can win
  • To win, a student must correctly identify the fugitive and recite three of the facts about refugee crises to the faculty member
  • Students may not begin identifying the fugitive until Wednesday
  • Without the 3 facts the faculty member will deny being the fugitive
  • Students may not try to identify the fugitive during class time 
  • The winner will receive either a $50 Dunkin Donuts or $50 Starbucksgift card, their choice
