(Post by Coach Claire Sagstuen)
JM competed at Farmington yesterday and it was truly a testament to how hard these amazing students are working! But also…our novices have been on fire all season! I’m in awe of everything they’ve accomplished thus far. JM took 1st in team sweeps and had multiple placements! Go, Fight, Speak!!!! 🚀❤️

"Students of John Marshall High School attended an Ethics and Peacebuilding workshop hosted by the Rotary Clubs of Rochester."
Peace-building collaborative to help inspire Rochester students https://www.kttc.com/2024/02/13/peace-building-collaborative-help-inspire-rochester-students/
February Rocket Boost! Sometimes the best way to BOOST your mood is to BOOST someone else's. This month students are writing notes to residents in local nursing homes. We love our JM students!
A HUGE shoutout to our students that are working hard to raise money to off-set costs of Prom. The money raised goes toward decorations and supporting students with financial barriers in attending.
Rochester Rotary is on-site today leading dozens of students thru ethics and peacebuilding in collaboration with NewGen Peacebuilders. Already students are sharing so many things they are learning about and ways their brains are being stretched.
Please consider supporting out Rocket Community Room. Thank you in advance!
